About the Role

The San Jose, CA position owns electronic execution, order exceptions, transaction-cost analysis, venue review, and broker accountability.

San Jose Operating Focus

The San Jose opening emphasizes scalable research systems, measurable latency, and careful release validation. Large datasets and time-sensitive systems need separate measures for correctness, latency, and cost.

Production improvements are accepted only when tests show that speed did not weaken point-in-time integrity or auditability. For this role, that means direct ownership of live orders, implementation shortfall, venue outcomes, and execution exceptions during Pacific Time review of data-intensive workflows, the U.S. close, and overnight processing.
