About the Role:
The central responsibility of the San Antonio, TX opening is the full evidence path from event-time data design through production review of market-microstructure measures. The assigned window includes Central Time coverage for live monitoring, afternoon investigation, and close review. Success requires reproducible work, prompt escalation, and clear ownership through review and production use.
San Antonio Operating Focus The San Antonio opening emphasizes calm incident handling and clear ownership from research through post-trade analysis. Central Time creates useful overlap with both Eastern and Pacific colleagues, but overlap does not remove the need for explicit handoffs. The opening owns midday status review, afternoon exception handling, and unresolved-issue transfer. A decision is not complete until its assumptions, limits, and next check are visible to another specialist. For this role, that means direct ownership of event-time data quality, liquidity diagnostics, and intraday research review during Central Time coverage for live monitoring, afternoon investigation, and close review.
First Review Cycle The first review cycle for San Antonio, TX starts with Central Time coverage for live monitoring, afternoon investigation, and close review. It will establish a measured baseline for event-time data quality, liquidity diagnostics, and intraday research review before the team proposes an operating change. The cycle requires this task: Document assumptions, failure modes, and regime sensitivity. A separate check covers this task: Design studies of spreads, depth, impact, auction behavior, and short-horizon price response. The San Antonio opening emphasizes calm incident handling and clear ownership from research through post-trade analysis. Neither check can rely only on an informal message or market story. The closing summary must show whether the evidence supports a change or only further study. It must let another specialist evaluate the full evidence path from event-time data design through production review of market-microstructure measures without private context.
Responsibilities:
Design studies of spreads, depth, impact, auction behavior, and short-horizon price response
Build event-time datasets without look-ahead or survivorship bias
Partner with engineering to productionize validated measures
Document assumptions, failure modes, and regime sensitivity
Own event-time data quality, liquidity diagnostics, and intraday research review during Central Time coverage for live monitoring, afternoon investigation, and close review.
Required Qualifications:
Advanced degree in a quantitative field or an equivalent research record
Strong Python, SQL, statistics, and market-data experience
Evidence of rigorous empirical research in electronic markets
Preferred Qualifications Experience with order-book data, auctions, or transaction-cost models
A record of explaining noisy microstructure evidence without overstating conclusions
Experience collaborating across time zones while maintaining the operating coverage assigned to the San Antonio, TX opening.
Benefits:
Medical, dental, and vision plan options with substantial company support
401(k) plan with company matching
Flexible paid time off and company holidays
Paid parental and caregiver leave
Annual learning, conference, and professional-development budget
Remote-work equipment and home-office support
Performance-bonus and equity eligibility based on role and level
