Description

About Us

AXQ Capital is a global quantitative investment firm with offices in New York, Beijing, Shanghai, and Hong Kong. We pursue consistent alpha through rigorous scientific research and sustained investment in technology and data infrastructure. Our strategies are deployed across global markets, spanning multiple geographies, asset classes, and trading horizons.

Responsibilities

AXQ Capital is seeking a sharp, dependable Production Engineer to join our New York team and support our global algorithmic trading operations.
You will work closely with portfolio managers, researchers, and engineers to oversee live trading and production systems. You will guide our systems through pre-market preparation, real-time execution, and post-trade processing; respond quickly to incidents and irregular activity; and build tools and automation that make our operations more reliable and efficient.

  • Monitor live trading, portfolio risk, and compliance with trading limits.
  • Oversee algorithmic execution, contract rolls, hedging, and other trading activities.
  • Guide systems through pre-market checks, real-time trading, and post-market processing.
  • Investigate system outages, order issues, and trading anomalies, coordinating with internal teams, brokers, and exchanges as needed.
  • Prepare for corporate actions, market events, and regulatory changes.
  • Support the deployment of new strategies and models.
  • Develop monitoring, alerting, dashboards, automation, and other operational tools.
  • Support post-trade reconciliation, clearing, and accurate record-keeping.
  • Participate in incident reviews and continuously improve systems, processes, and runbooks.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree or above in computer science, engineering, natural sciences, financial mathematics, or a related field.
  • Strong programming and computer science fundamentals, with proficiency in Python and the ability to build production-quality tools.
  • Proficiency with Linux and familiarity with databases, networking, operating systems, concurrency, or distributed systems.
  • Strong interest in financial markets, market structure, trading systems, and risk management.
  • Excellent troubleshooting and problem-solving skills, particularly in fast-paced, high-pressure environments.
  • Strong analytical ability, attention to detail, ownership, and communication skills.
  • Ability to provide coverage during U.S. market hours, including pre-market and occasional after-hours support.
  • New graduates and early-career candidates are encouraged to apply.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with trading, risk management, clearing, reconciliation, production operations, or financial-market infrastructure.
  • Experience with monitoring and observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, or ELK.
  • Familiarity with CI/CD, containerization, cloud infrastructure, databases, or job scheduling.
  • Internship, project, or professional experience in quantitative trading, market making, brokerage, asset management, exchanges, or fintech.
  • Effective use of AI-assisted development tools such as Claude Code and Codex.

The anticipated annual base salary range for this position is $100,000 to $150,000, depending on prior experience and qualifications. We offer a competitive total compensation package that includes base salary and an annual discretionary bonus.
