ABOUT US

BlackEdge Capital is a proprietary trading firm specializing in options market
making. As a market maker, our primary role is to provide liquidity in financial
markets by always being willing to buy and sell. No matter the market
conditions, we are ready to facilitate the objectives of investors. Over the
last decade we have established a presence as a major player in multiple US
markets, and are excited to expand our footprint further.

BlackEdge's success is built on a foundation of deep collaboration between
trading and technology. Our traders lean on their quantitative education,
options theory training, years of experience, and internal drive to push us
forward into new markets and products. Our tech team leverages a breadth of
experience in technical innovation with a disciplined, iterative, scientific
approach to ensure they build exactly what our traders need. Together we chase
excellence by working to get a little bit better, every single day.

CAREERS

New to Trading?

Top notch traders are essential to our success. Our rigorous onboarding program
comprises technical courses taught by senior traders, a mock-trading
environment, and practical on-desk training. Great traders come from many
backgrounds. We seek out the best people in their respective fields and help
grow their skillset so they become valuable members of the BlackEdge team.

Our trading team helps develop new trading strategies, software, and techniques
for options market making. Ideal candidates have a foundation in math,
engineering, or computer science and love solving challenging problems. We pride
ourselves not only on our trading and decision making, but also our ability to
leverage and constantly improve our modeling and technology.

Trader’s responsibilities include pricing options and managing inventory risk,
analyzing short- and medium-term trading results, and driving longer-term
projects to evolve our trading strategy, tools, and system.


New to Financial Technology?

Just like our traders, members of our technology team often arrive to BlackEdge
with no trading industry experience. Our engineers have come from Big Tech
companies, small web startups, and PhD programs. While our core trading system
is primarily written in C++ and C#, experience in those languages is far from a
prerequisite for success. What matters most for success in our industry is how
your approach to engineering technology systems, your passion to grow and learn,
and your excitement about competing in the trading industry.

BlackEdge’s small size and collaborative environment enable every member of our
technology team, from fresh intern to seasoned partner, to scale their impact
across every trading team at the firm. In an industry where latency is measured
in nanoseconds, bandwidth in gigabits, and storage in terabytes, unique and
interesting challenges abound.



We are currently looking for new team members in the following roles:


Graduate Quantitative Developer
Graduate Quantitative Trader
Software Engineer
Quantitative Developer Intern
Quantitative Trader Intern
DevOps Engineer
Quantitative Trader


CULTURE

We know our success is driven by the individuals that make up our firm.  We are
committed to providing the best environment for success on and off the trading
desk.  Our office is located in the trendy Fulton Market neighborhood of
Chicago.  Out of the office, we regularly meet up for happy hours, dinners, and
social events across the city.


During the day, we offer several benefits for a productive environment:

 * Lunch Program and fully stocked kitchen with snacks and drinks

 * Casual dress code

 * Massage therapy program

 * In-office fitness center and Golf Simulator


 REMOTE WORK

We recognize in the post-covid era that remote workers are going to be an
important part of our company.  For entry-level employees, we currently require
an in-office start to help build your skillset and learn how to trade the
BlackEdge way.  For more senior staff, there is an option to work remotely.  Our
tech team has built an exceptional virtual environment that allows us to connect
with employees across the globe.

GIVING BACK

BlackEdge Capital is committed to giving back to the community.  Since its
founding in 2009, Blackedge Capital has been a corporate sponsor of many local
and international organizations whose missions range from creating safe drinking
water in Ethiopia, to helping impoverished youth in our local community of
Chicago.

 BlackEdge is committed to being a carbon neutral entity. We seek to build a
company with driven, responsible employees.  Giving back to our community and
the world at large is a reflection of that goal.
