## About the role

We're hiring a mid-level quantitative risk analyst to design and implement enterprise-scale risk models at the heart of our clearing operation. You'll own models for market risk, volatility and correlation of derivatives, stress testing, and automated liquidation — the systems that keep the platform solvent and users protected in fast-moving markets. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- 5–7 years of quantitative risk experience at a clearinghouse, exchange, prime broker, trading firm, or similar
- Proven expertise designing and implementing risk models at enterprise scale — production systems, not just research prototypes
- Deep experience modeling volatility, correlation, option skews, option pricing and implementing at scale for trad-fi derivatives, perpetuals, and fully collateralized event contracts
- Hands-on experience with market risk modeling, stress testing, and auto-liquidation mechanics in a clearing context
- Strong fluency with AI-assisted development and coding, paired with the judgment to pressure-test AI outputs against well-established risk models and catch what looks plausible but is wrong
- Expert-level Python (numerical stack: NumPy, pandas, SciPy, solid software engineering practices)
