Quant Risk Engineer – DeFi
Fully Remote
We’re working with a DeFi infra team building risk systems for onchain markets.
They’re hiring a quant risk engineer to own and develop core risk models used in production.
The role:
- Build and implement risk models for trading / collateral systems
- Work on methodologies like FRTB / SIMM / SBA
- Translate quantitative models into production systems
- Partner with engineers + founder on system design
What they’re looking for:
- 2+ years directly relevant quant / risk experience
- Experience with FRTB, SIMM or SBA (at least one required)
- Very strong maths / quantitative background
- Able to work close to production systems (Python helpful, not essential)
- High ownership, comfortable in a lean team
Comp:
- Up to $160k USD
- Fully remote
- Equity
Why this role:
- Work on real risk systems, not research-only
- Direct impact on how capital is managed onchain
- Strong team with deep quant + engineering background
- Early enough to have real ownership
If you’ve worked on risk frameworks and want to apply it in DeFi, this is a very strong move.
