Wintermute is one of the largest algorithmic trading companies in digital assets, providing liquidity algorithmically across major cryptocurrency exchanges and trading platforms. The company offers OTC trading solutions and supports high-profile blockchain projects and traditional financial institutions entering crypto.
You will join as an Algorithmic Trader, taking ownership of P&L-impacting trading projects from inception. Working closely with experienced traders and developers across the global trading team, you will analyze large amounts of trading and transaction data to identify opportunities, build and improve trading strategies, and develop solutions based on your findings.
This role combines quantitative analysis, Python coding, and commercial decision-making. After an initial training period, you will gain significant independence and responsibility. The environment is flat and collaborative—no legacy systems, multiple approval layers, or rigid boundaries between trading, analysis, and development. You are encouraged to identify opportunities, build solutions, and make immediate impact.
Key responsibilities include:
- Analyzing trading and transaction data to identify market opportunities
- Building and improving algorithmic trading strategies
- Developing solutions to enhance P&L
- Collaborating with traders and developers on strategy implementation
- Taking ownership of trading projects with minimal oversight
You should have strong quantitative skills, proficiency in Python, good trading instincts, and genuine curiosity about algorithmic trading, high-frequency trading, liquidity provision, and digital assets. This is a trading and business role requiring both analytical rigor and commercial judgment.
