Strong coding ability (Python and/or C++) you should be able to ship clean, efficient, production-ready code independentlySolid grounding in market microstructure, arbitrage, or relative-value strategiesExperience managing real trading risk, or strong quantitative/finance background with a demonstrated ability to tradeComfort working with large datasets, backtesting frameworks, and low-latency systemsA bias toward automation and process efficiency over manual intervention
