About 39k

39k Group is a high-frequency trading firm operating globally across centralized crypto exchanges. We specialize in ultra-low-latency strategies and market making, scaling infrastructure to handle billions of events daily with microsecond-level performance.

Role Overview

We're hiring a Quantitative Trader to design and drive trading strategies that sit at the heart of our business. You'll work at the intersection of markets, quantitative research, and technology — generating ideas, testing them in simulation, and bringing them to live execution with the support of developers and researchers.

This role is ideal for those who combine strong quantitative intuition with a love of real-time markets. You'll be empowered to experiment, measure, and iterate quickly — with your decisions directly impacting PnL.

What You'll Do

• Generate trading hypotheses across spot, perpetuals, and futures markets.
• Develop, backtest, and refine alpha signals and strategy logic using large-scale tick and order book data.
• Collaborate with quantitative developers to bring strategies into ultra-low-latency production environments.
• Monitor strategy performance and adapt parameters in real time based on market conditions.
• Analyze execution quality, slippage, and queue positioning to optimize fills and PnL.
• Stay ahead of market microstructure changes, exchange mechanics, and competitive landscape.
