Job description

Head of Quantitative Trading & Strategy

Confidential Client of Peskind Executive Search
Location: Miami, FL
Reports To: Chief Executive Officer

About the Client

Our client is a fast-growing, data-driven leader transforming the live entertainment ecosystem. By merging advanced analytics, technology, and market-making strategy, the company brings liquidity, transparency, and financial innovation to the secondary ticketing marketplace — connecting fans to the events they love through smarter pricing and trading infrastructure.

With six years of consistent profitability, the organization is now entering its next growth phase — building a next-generation quantitative trading platform that applies high-frequency trading principles to live event markets. This is not just a technology company — it’s the trading desk of live entertainment.

About the Role

Peskind Executive Search has been exclusively retained to identify a Head of Quantitative Trading & Strategy, an entrepreneurial technical leader who will design, build, and scale the company’s automated trading systems and pricing algorithms from inception.

This individual will own the architecture, codebase, and real-time execution strategies that directly drive revenue and profitability. Working closely with the CEO, you will shape the company’s quantitative direction, drive innovation in predictive modeling, and lead a small, high-impact team of engineers and analysts.

Key Responsibilities

  • Architect and own the company’s trading infrastructure, data pipelines, and execution engines.

  • Design, implement, and optimize high-performance, fault-tolerant trading systems.

  • Develop and refine predictive models for pricing, demand forecasting, and market efficiency.

  • Build real-time dashboards and monitoring tools for trading performance, P&L, and risk exposure.

  • Partner directly with executive leadership to prioritize strategy and identify emerging opportunities.

  • Lead, mentor, and grow a technical team as the organization scales its quantitative operations.

  • Continuously enhance system speed, data integrity, and model profitability.

Ideal Background

  • 5+ years of experience in quantitative trading, algorithmic strategy, or prop trading environments.

  • Advanced technical expertise in Python, SQL, APIs, and data engineering frameworks.

  • Proven track record designing and deploying real-time trading or optimization systems.

  • Strong understanding of market microstructure, risk, and statistical modeling.

  • Entrepreneurial, hands‑on mindset with a bias toward execution and measurable results.

  • Excellent communication skills — able to distill complex models into actionable business insights.

Preferred Experience

  • Exposure to dynamic pricing, high-frequency commerce, or live event industries.

  • Prior experience in startup or fintech settings with P&L ownership or performance-based incentives.

Compensation

Our client offers a highly competitive package aligned with performance and profitability:

  • Base Salary: $250,000 – $350,000 (depending on experience)

  • Performance Bonus: Up to 20% of strategy-driven P&L, net of expenses

  • Alternative Structure: Lower base with higher revenue share for candidates seeking greater upside

Why This Opportunity

  • Direct Revenue Impact: Trading systems you build will directly drive measurable profits.

  • Autonomy & Innovation: Freedom to architect next-gen systems without legacy constraints.

  • Strategic Visibility: Report directly to the CEO and help define a new quantitative business line.

  • High‑Growth Sector: Operate at the intersection of data science, trading, and live entertainment.
