Quant Risk Analyst

As a Quant Risk Analyst at Rock Bund Capital, you will sit at the intersection of daily risk operations, PnL and position reconciliation, quantitative analysis, and incident management. You ensure complete risk oversight and control across all firmwide trading activities, working closely with Trading, Engineering, Finance, and Operations as a critical frontline defense: enforcing risk limits, investigating real-time discrepancies, and maintaining operational integrity.

What you'll do

• Conduct real-time monitoring and risk control across systematic trading strategies, tracking PnL, position exposures, margin utilization, leverage, and limit compliance.
• Perform daily PnL, position, balance, and account reconciliations across trading systems, exchanges, and internal records to ensure complete data integrity.
• Track exchange and account-level risk parameters, including margin call thresholds, liquidation risks, funding rates, and basis exposure.
• Proactively identify and investigate PnL discrepancies, exposure spikes, risk limit breaches, and operational anomalies.
• Support end-to-end incident management, including initial triage, impact assessment, root-cause analysis, escalation, and post-incident tracking.
• Partner cross-functionally with Trading, Engineering, Finance, and Operations to resolve data inconsistencies and operational bottlenecks.
• Leverage Python, SQL, or other analytical tools to automate recurring daily risk checks, reconciliation workflows, and data pipelines.
• Perform quantitative analysis on strategy behavior, drawdown profiles, risk-adjusted performance, and key risk metrics.
• Assist in developing and enhancing risk monitoring dashboards, control procedures, and operational SOPs.
• Prepare concise daily, weekly, and ad-hoc risk management reports for senior stakeholders.

What you bring

• A degree in a quantitative or analytical discipline such as Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, Financial Engineering, Finance, or a related field with a strong academic background.
• 1-3 years of experience in risk management, middle office, quantitative analysis, trading operations, or a similar domain (high-potential fresh graduates will also be considered).
• A solid grasp of financial market mechanics, trading PnL and position reconciliation, and foundational market risk concepts such as exposure, margin, leverage, max drawdown, and VaR.
• Exceptional numerical aptitude, rigorous attention to detail, and a structured, hands-on approach to problem-solving and investigation.
• A strong sense of responsibility, reliability in executing daily operational workflows, and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment.
• Fluency in English and Mandarin Chinese to communicate effectively with colleagues across different locations.

Nice to have

• Proficiency with Python and/or SQL for data analysis, workflow automation, and scripting.
• Familiarity with derivatives trading and quantitative strategies such as futures, perpetual swaps, options, market making, and arbitrage.
