About the Role

This opening gives the Philadelphia, PA hire responsibility for continuous-market coverage, venue and counterparty exposure, funding, custody constraints, and weekend controls, with operating coverage focused on Eastern Time research review before the open and throughout the U.S. cash session. You will connect research, engineering, trading, and risk without hiding uncertainty or operational tradeoffs.

Philadelphia Operating Focus

The Philadelphia opening emphasizes evidence-first decisions, documented challenge, and orderly production handoffs. The workday reserves focused time before the open for independent evidence review and challenge. During live markets, the role must distinguish a normal deviation from a condition that needs escalation. At the close, open questions move into a short written queue with a named owner and a required follow-up date. For this role, that means direct ownership of continuous-market exposure, fragmented liquidity, venue risk, and shift handoffs during Eastern Time research review before the open and throughout the U.S. cash session.

The second will cover this task: Research market structure while respecting legal and counterparty limits.
