What You’ll Do In This Role
  • Build, execute, and risk manage discretionary & semi-systematic strategies end-to-end across ETFs and index futures.
  • Run ETF market-making and index arbitrage (cash–futures/TRS basis, baskets), and contribute to central risk book decisions to internalize flow and optimize inventory/hedging.
  • Analyse flows & themes (macro, microstructure, corporate actions) to generate tradeable hypotheses and P&L.
  • Partner with developers/quants to improve models, data pipelines, and execution tooling (Python-first culture).
  • Drive execution quality: route selection, algo parameters, participation, and post-trade attribution.
  • Contribute to desk risk positioning and runbooks; uphold controls (price bands, notional caps, borrow/recall awareness).
Requirements
  • 5+ years as a trader in ETFs or index futures (prop/MM/sell-side delta-one).
  • Asia markets experience (HK/SG/JP/KR/TW at minimum). Onshore China (QFI/Stock Connect, futures) is a strong plus.
  • Hands-on exposure to ETF MM, index arbitrage, and/or central risk book workflows.
  • Strong Python (pandas/numpy; quick prototyping/backtests; comfort with data hygiene & attribution).
  • Ability to translate macro/news into positioning; understanding of microstructure (auctions, halts/LULD, tick/lot, fee tiers) and SBL/borrow dynamics.
  • Profitable track record in equities/futures (high-level P&L drivers and risk used to achieve it).
  • Nice to have
  • Experience with internalization/crossing frameworks; broker algo tuning (VWAP/TWAP/POV).
  • Corporate-actions & index events playbooks; AP/issuer interactions for Cr/Rd.
  • Mandarin/Cantonese language skills (for brokers/issuers/reg materials) are a plus.
