About the Role
The New York, NY position owns electronic execution, order exceptions, transaction-cost analysis, venue review, and broker accountability. Its working schedule covers early U.S. market preparation and the full Eastern Time cash session. You will work with a small group of specialists and preserve enough evidence for another person to challenge every material decision.
New York Operating Focus
The New York opening emphasizes fast morning escalation, precise market-open review, and complete end-of-day records. Daily work begins before the cash open with overnight-gap review, scheduled-event checks, and clear escalation ownership. Opening and closing auctions receive separate analysis because each can create different liquidity and execution conditions. Post-close records must explain what changed, what remained uncertain, and which issue carries into the next session. For this role, that means direct ownership of live orders, implementation shortfall, venue outcomes, and execution exceptions during early U.S. market preparation and the full Eastern Time cash session.
First Review Cycle
The New York, NY opening begins with an end-to-end review of live orders, implementation shortfall, venue outcomes, and execution exceptions during early U.S. market preparation and the full Eastern Time cash session.

It also includes this task: Develop broker and algorithm scorecards. The New York opening emphasizes fast morning escalation, precise market-open review, and complete end-of-day records. 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.
