Job description

Jump Trading Group is committed to world class research. We empower exceptional talents in Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science to seek scientific boundaries, push through them, and apply cutting edge research to global financial markets. Our culture is unique. Constant innovation requires fearlessness, creativity, intellectual honesty, and a relentless competitive streak. We believe in winning together and unlocking unique individual talent by incenting collaboration and mutual respect. At Jump, research outcomes drive more than superior risk adjusted returns. We design, develop, and deploy technologies that change our world, fund start-ups across industries, and partner with leading global research organizations and universities to solve problems.
As a Risk Manager, you will be part of Jump Trading's Global Risk Management team. The department manages moment-to-moment risk for all trading teams and is responsible for evaluating new trading strategies, markets, and products. Furthermore, the risk team is responsible for working with Core Development and Technology teams to advance the firm's internal risk layer, metrics, and reporting. This position is ideal for seasoned professionals with strong risk management expertise, technical skills, and proven experience operating at a high bar within high-pressure environments.
What You'll Do:
  • Serve as the NYC go-to operational risk partner: set and monitor exposure limits and guardrails with front office and Global Risk; operate existing controls and alerting; investigate, escalate, and document exceptions.
  • Monitor factor/sector and liquidity/correlation exposures across strategies and firm-level aggregates using firm-provided tools; collaborate with Market Risk and front office to review scenario/stress outputs, align on assumptions, and communicate practical implications.
  • Perform daily and intraday risk monitoring to identify and escalate material exposures, concentrations, anomalies, and control exceptions across regions.
  • Apply practical US equity market microstructure knowledge to inform monitoring, limits, controls, and scenarios.
  • Liaise with internal partners and external prime brokers, clearing firms, and exchanges on margin/financing, locates, market access controls, and corporate actions.
  • Triage trade-lifecycle issues (trade capture, allocations, reconciliations, market data, connectivity) with Trading, Operations, Clearing, Treasury, Technology, and Compliance.
  • Use Python/SQL/Excel to query firm datasets and automate light reporting where helpful.
  • Other duties as assigned or needed to ensure smooth business operations.

Skills You'll Need:
  • At least 7 years in equities-focused risk or trading across developed/emerging markets.
    • Cash equities most preferred. Equity derivatives and index products also useful.
  • Bachelor's degree required; including a strong academic record.
  • Operational risk fluency across the trade lifecycle, prime brokerage/clearing (margin/financing), short inventory/locates, market access controls, and exchange connectivity/trading systems.
  • Factor literacy: experience consuming outputs from factor models (e.g., Barra, Axioma) and common measures (e.g. VaR) to interpret and communicate risk.
  • Practical US equity market microstructure knowledge and how it informs monitoring, limits, controls, and scenarios.
  • Python, SQL, experience with Bloomberg, and advanced Excel required for querying firm datasets, validation, ad hoc analysis, and light automation.
  • Ability to communicate in a way that is crisp, credible at the desk, effective with traders and technologists, and calm under pressure.
  • Reliable and predictable availability, including onsite presence in New York with flexibility for occasional off-hours support.

Benefits
  • Discretionary bonus eligibility
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • HSA, FSA, and Dependent Care options
  • Employer Paid Group Term Life and AD&D Insurance
  • Voluntary Life & AD&D insurance
  • Paid vacation plus paid holidays
  • Retirement plan with employer match
  • Paid parental leave
  • Wellness Programs

Annual Base Salary Range
$150,000-$200,000 USD
