Partner with engineers, quantitative researchers, and traders to translate ambitious goals into clear plans, milestones, and measurable outcomes.
Manage cross-team dependencies, surface risks early, and keep initiatives on track in a fast-moving, low-latency environment.
Establish and improve project management practices — planning, prioritization, status reporting, and post-mortems — that fit an engineering-driven culture.
Communicate progress, trade-offs, and decisions clearly to both technical and business stakeholders.
7–10 years of experience managing technical projects or engineering programs, ideally including systems where performance and reliability are critical.
