About the Role

In this Seattle, WA role, you will be accountable for electronic execution, order exceptions, transaction-cost analysis, venue review, and broker accountability while supporting Pacific Time monitoring of the U.S. close and preparation for overnight data workflows. The work requires direct communication, explicit limits, and records that remain useful after market conditions change.

Seattle Operating Focus

The Seattle opening emphasizes resilient analytical systems, asynchronous collaboration, and well-tested operating changes. Pacific Time coverage gives this opening responsibility for the U.S. close and the transition into overnight processing. Asynchronous work must be self-contained: the evidence, decision, limitation, and requested action belong in the same record. Changes to analytical systems require failure tests and a clear return to the last known-good state. For this role, that means direct ownership of live orders, implementation shortfall, venue outcomes, and execution exceptions during Pacific Time monitoring of the U.S. close and preparation for overnight data workflows.

First Review Cycle

Your first documented cycle for the Seattle, WA opening will test the operating process for live orders, implementation shortfall, venue outcomes, and execution exceptions during Pacific Time monitoring of the U.S. close and preparation for overnight data workflows. The objective is a reproducible baseline, not a quick narrative. The evidence package includes this task: Develop broker and algorithm scorecards. It also includes this task: Coordinate incident response with engineering and risk. The Seattle opening emphasizes resilient analytical systems, asynchronous collaboration, and well-tested operating changes. A peer will review both results from the same source data. The cycle ends with a short decision record, its limit, the next check, and each unresolved question. Another specialist must be able to trace the work through electronic execution, order exceptions, transaction-cost analysis, venue review, and broker accountability.
