Quantitative Strategy Analyst (Cryptocurrency)

As a Quantitative Strategy Analyst at CoinWorldCap, you design, model, and build next-generation systematic trading strategies across cryptocurrency markets on centralized exchanges (CEXs) and decentralized exchanges (DEXs). This role combines market microstructure research with high-performance Web3 execution infrastructure. You actively explore trading signals in cryptocurrency spot, perpetual, and options markets, and leverage LLM programming agents to deploy strategies directly into production-ready execution flows.

What you'll do

• Research, design, and backtest systematic trading strategies including market-making, arbitrage, and momentum models for cryptocurrency spot, perpetual, and options markets
• Transform your quantitative models directly into production-ready backtesting suites and real-time trading execution logic for major CEXs and DEXs
• Optimize high-throughput data pipelines, order routing systems, and WebSocket/FIX connection handling to manage the extreme volatility and high concurrency of the cryptocurrency market
• Build workflows for smart contract interactions, MEV protection mechanisms, and liquidity provisioning for on-chain decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and options protocols
• Develop robust real-time risk control metrics and automated liquidation and hedging frameworks to ensure fund security in decentralized cryptocurrency trading venues

What you bring

• Deep understanding of cryptocurrency market microstructure, funding rate mechanisms, derivatives pricing models, and DEX liquidity pool (AMM) dynamics
• Proficiency in advanced coding with the ability to write robust production-grade backtesting frameworks and real-time execution engines from scratch
• Proficiency in Golang, Python, or Node.js, capable of implementing concurrent, high-throughput, and asynchronous trading services
• Proficiency in relational databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL), NoSQL (Redis), and specialized time-series databases for handling high-frequency financial data (ClickHouse, InfluxDB)
• Proficiency in using LLM programming agents such as Codex and Claude Code to accelerate code compilation, strategy building, and infrastructure optimization
• A strong sense of ownership, proactively building trading hypotheses from scratch to ultimately automate live trading deployments
• Fluency in English and Mandarin to enable smooth cross-departmental communication and collaborative algorithm development

Nice to have

• Practical experience in cross-exchange margin management, delta hedging strategies, or complex multi-leg option combinations in the cryptocurrency field
