About the Role

The Dallas, TX position owns electronic execution, order exceptions, transaction-cost analysis, venue review, and broker accountability. Its working schedule covers Central Time coordination of market-open decisions and cross-team risk review. You will work with a small group of specialists and preserve enough evidence for another person to challenge every material decision.

Dallas Operating Focus

The Dallas opening emphasizes measurable controls, prompt escalation, and reliable links between research and production. The operating day joins pre-market readiness, live risk review, and production follow-through. This opening must make cross-team decisions measurable by recording the trigger for escalation, the person who approved the response, and the condition that ends it. Routine work should be automated only after its failure behavior is understood. For this role, that means direct ownership of live orders, implementation shortfall, venue outcomes, and execution exceptions during Central Time coordination of market-open decisions and cross-team risk review.

Any proposed response must remain within an approved limit. One required check is: Analyze implementation shortfall, impact, and venue outcomes. The next required check is: Develop broker and algorithm scorecards. The Dallas opening emphasizes measurable controls, prompt escalation, and reliable links between research and production. You will identify any assumption that remains untested after both checks. The final handoff will name the current state, the responsible person, and the next verification step.
