Location: Initially on-site and may be hybrid/remote based on experience
Reports to: Trade Desk Team Lead
Licensure Required: FINRA Series 7, 63, and 3 Certified
As a Trade Desk Representative, 24/7 Coverage at tastytrade, you will provide essential 24-hour trading support and risk monitoring for tastytrade customers during US market overnight hours and over the weekend. You will serve as the key weekend-day, swing, or overnight presence for 24-hour-traded products such as futures, futures options, SPX (GTH) index options, event contracts, and more. This role consists of a 4-day work week consisting of two 8-hour shifts during the week and two 12-hour shifts on the weekend. You must be comfortable working independently and handling positions or order-related inquiries, resolving trade disputes, reviewing customer risk, conducting customer risk callouts during risk events, and serving as the main point of contact for urgent customer issues during the shift. This role requires a deep understanding of the supported products, strong problem-solving skills under pressure, and the ability to make sound, independent decisions in a fast-paced environment.

  • Escalate technical issues to Engineering or Technical Support teams, providing detailed documentation of customer problems

Operations & Incident Management
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for urgent customer issues during US overnight/early morning hours
  • Properly triage cases by coordinating with the US day-shift Margin & Risk teams on risk-related issues, providing detailed transition reports on overnight developments

  • Work with reviewing, approving, and rejecting crypto wallets, including processing crypto deposits and withdrawals
  • Partner with the Engineering team to report platform bugs, execution issues, or system enhancements identified during overnight operations

Independent Decision-Making & Problem Solving
  • Work independently with minimal supervision during overnight hours when senior leadership is unavailable
  • Make sound decisions on customer requests, risk situations, and operational matters using established policies and best judgment
