Salary: ₹200,000 - ₹1,000,000 per year
Contract type: Full time
As a Quantitative R&D Engineer, you’ll join the team responsible for designing, validating, and scaling trading strategies that interact directly with crypto markets.

You’ll work at the intersection of statistics, code, and markets — exploring data, prototyping logic, and building tools that convert ideas into capital allocation engines.

What You’ll Work On

  • Analyze on-chain and market data to identify inefficiencies and behavioural patterns.
  • Develop and prototype systematic trading strategies using statistical and ML-based techniques.
  • Contribute to signal research, backtesting infrastructure, and strategy evaluation frameworks.
  • Monitor and interpret DeFi protocol mechanics (AMMs, perps, lending markets) for alpha generation.
  • Collaborate with engineers to turn research into production-grade, automated trading systems.
  • Explore MEV, cross-chain arbitrage, and predictive modelling for on-chain behaviour.

Who You Are

  • You’re curious, analytical, and eager to work where code meets markets.
  • You enjoy designing systems that act autonomously and uncover edge in complex, noisy data.
  • You’re comfortable working in an experimental, high-ownership environment.

Ideal Traits

  • Proficiency in Python and experience working with data (Pandas, NumPy, etc.)
  • Understanding of probability, statistics, or ML concepts.
  • Strong interest in markets, trading, or algorithmic systems.
  • Self-driven and comfortable with ambiguity, iteration, and fast learning cycles.

Bonus Points For

  • Experience with backtesting, feature engineering, or strategy evaluation.
  • Familiarity with crypto primitives (AMMs, perps, mempools, MEV, etc.)
  • Projects or research involving trading bots, alpha signals, or data modelling.
  • Use of on-chain analytics tools (Dune, The Graph, Nansen, etc.)
  • Participation in hackathons, quant competitions, or open-source work.

What You’ll Gain

  • Work on live systems that deploy real capital in 24/7 crypto markets.
  • Access to proprietary infrastructure, backtesting tools, and strategy libraries.
  • Mentorship from experienced quants, traders, and DeFi engineers.
  • Freedom to explore, test, and scale your ideas into real-world performance.
  • A high-trust, fast-moving team focused on pushing boundaries.
