Trader - QuantPilot

We are hiring a Trader to join the product team full-time. This is a hands-on trading role for someone who already runs systematic, automated strategies. The role involves building and stress-testing strategies across crypto, futures, stocks and FX, working directly with the engineers and designers building the tools. QuantPilot is 3Commas' AI trading copilot: agents that research markets, generate trading strategies, backtest them and iterate on them together with the trader in a chat. This role is not for DeFi yield farmers or liquidity providers, long term holders, discretionary traders with no system behind their trades, or manual traders who have never automated anything.
