Quantitative Developer - Algorithmic Options Trading

Remote (Germany)
Employee
Software Development
70.000 € to 90.000 € / year

We are a 2 years old venture studio (with 70 employees) and prop shop running options strategies with our own assets.

We are currently looking for a Quant to join our core team.

You will work on live strategies with real PnL impact, in a small, technical team with high ownership and fast iteration cycles. You will work on a combination of software engineering + quantitative thinking. This is an opportunity to shape both the trading systems and the broader platform.

Tasks

  • Design and implement systematic options strategies (from idea to backtest to production)
  • Work directly on live trading systems with real capital at risk
  • Analyze large-scale market data to identify inefficiencies and new signals
  • Improve execution, latency, and robustness of existing strategies
  • Own the full lifecycle: research, validation, deployment, monitoring
  • Continuously iterate on models, risk management, and portfolio construction

Requirements

  • 2-5 years experience in quantitative development or algorithmic trading (options experience is a strong plus)
  • Strong programming skills (Python incl. math/stats ecosystem required; C++/Scala is a plus)
  • Solid understanding of probability, statistics, and numerical methods
  • Experience with backtesting, data pipelines, and performance optimization
  • Ability to work independently and drive ideas end-to-end
  • Interest in markets and building real trading systems (not just research)

We’re a group of engineers building the company we always wanted to work for:

  • Delivering high-end software projects (e.g. DB, Rheinmetall, Miele)
  • Building and launching our own products
  • Running systematic trading strategies with our own capital
  • Focused on speed, ownership, and technical excellence
