Job Summary
Your Responsibility
đWe are seeking an already experienced head for our new real-time information flows team. You will build the technical team and direct the architecture from the ground up. đWe think the future system will have 3 major components / sub-teams: đFrontend/UX Sub-Team: Create an excellent user interface for traders and researchers with robust âAlert and Warningâ pop-up capabilities. This is a challenging UX problem as mistakes here cost millions of dollars, but attention also is expensive. đData Corpus Sub-Team: Develop the tools for testing and scoring new alert ideas (optimizing precision / recall) and providing ideas for new alerts. đReliability/Latency Sub-Team: Consistently reduce latency and maintain reliable scrapers and infrastructure that perform well under harsh conditions (e.g., OCR, login, site structure changes, IP bans).
Requirements
đOur first hire is a generalist with direct experience building similar alpha-harvesting event systems in another hedge fund. You are likely "director-level." đYou are still hands-on and build an MVP of #1-3 by yourself. đsoftWhile constantly hiring senior engineers to work under them and lead each module.
