wormholelabs - Junior Trader

• 0–3 years of experience — recent graduates with strong technical credentials, or candidates from quant research, engineering, data, or markets-adjacent roles looking to move onto a trading desk. • Strong quantitative foundation: probability, statistics, and the instinct to reach for data before opinions. • Python preferred, ideally applied to financial modeling or data analysis (pandas, notebooks, working with messy datasets). Adjacent tooling — R, MATLAB, SQL, serious Excel modeling — counts. • Real interest in crypto and DeFi. Professional crypto experience isn't required; demonstrated engagement with the space is. • Sound judgment under pressure. Markets move at 3am and things break. We need someone who stays composed, thinks clearly, and escalates early. • Precise communicator • Self-directed and adaptable; comfortable operating with autonomy across time zones in a remote-first environment. • Personal trading, market-making, or on-chain activity of any kind — a portfolio, a bot, an arbitrage script, a Dune dashboard. • Familiarity with Solana tooling (Jupiter, Orca, Drift) or EVM DeFi (Uniswap, Aave, Curve). • Exposure to algorithmic or systematic trading. • Machine learning or large-scale data analysis (regression, tree-based methods, classification). • Internships or prior work at a trading firm, market maker, exchange, or protocol. • WHAT YOU'LL GET • Direct mentorship from traders running real capital — you'll learn by working alongside them, not from a curriculum. • Responsibility as fast as you can earn it, with clear feedback on where you stand. • Exposure across the full stack of a trading operation: execution, risk, tooling, counterparty relationships, and market structure. • A front-row seat as equities, commodities, and crypto converge on-chain.
