About the Company
AlphaGrep is a quantitative trading and investment firm founded in 2010. We are one of the largest firms by trading volume on Indian exchanges and have significant market share on several large global exchanges as well. We use a disciplined and systematic quantitative approach to identify factors that consistently generate alpha. These factors are then coupled with our proprietary ultra-low latency trading systems and robust risk management to develop trading strategies across asset classes (equities, commodities, currencies, fixed income) that trade on global exchanges
We are looking for a highly motivated Trading Analyst to join our team at AlphaGrep. This is a cross-functional role that bridges the core tech team and non-tech teams such as the back office. You will gain deep exposure to the entire trading lifecycle — from live trading activity to post-trade reconciliation.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys problem-solving, debugging, and ensuring the smooth functioning of trading systems. You’ll play a key part in identifying and resolving issues across both front office and back office operations.
Key Responsibilities
- Monitor, debug, and resolve issues in the trading workflow.
- Coordinate with developers, traders, and back-office teams to ensure seamless daily operations.
- Understand and support front-to-back trading lifecycle and system processes.
- Analyze trade data and logs using SQL and Python to identify issues or discrepancies.
- Suggest and help implement process improvements or system enhancements.
- Document recurring issues and resolution steps for knowledge sharing.
What We’re Looking For
- Strong interest in financial markets and trading systems.
- Working knowledge of SQL for data querying and analysis.
- Exposure to Python and experience working in a Linux environment.
- Excellent problem-solving skills and strong attention to detail.
- Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate across technical and non-technical teams.
- Prior experience in finance or trading is a plus, but not mandatory.
- Eagerness to work in a high-ownership, fast-paced environment.
What You Will Gain from This Role
- Direct exposure to end-to-end trading flows at a leading proprietary trading firm.
- Learn from both technical and trading domain experts.
- Work closely with both core tech and operational teams.
- Great opportunity for early-career or mid-level professionals to grow in fintech.
Why You Should Join Us
- Great People. We're curious engineers, mathematicians, statisticians and like to have fun while achieving our goals
- Transparent Structure. Our employees know that we value their ideas and contributions
- Relaxed Environment. We have a flat organizational structure with frequent activities for all employees such as yearly offsites, happy hours, corporate sports teams, etc.
- Health & Wellness Programs. We believe that a balanced employee is more productive. A stocked kitchen, gym membership and generous vacation package are just some of the perks that we offer our employees
