Algorithmic Trading Strategist

Algorithmic Trading Strategist (AI Training)

About the Role

What if your deep knowledge of markets and trading systems could directly shape how AI understands algorithmic strategy? We're looking for Algorithmic Trading Strategists to evaluate, analyze, and stress-test trading logic used in AI-powered systems — identifying weaknesses, validating decision quality, and ensuring strategies hold up against real-world market conditions.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for experienced trading professionals who know how markets actually work. If you've built, run, or analyzed systematic trading strategies, your expertise is exactly what we need.

• Type: Hourly Contract
• Location: Remote
• Commitment: Flexible, task-based

What You'll Do

• Review and evaluate algorithmic trading logic and execution pathways for correctness and soundness
• Analyze order types, routing behavior, and market microstructure assumptions embedded in strategy design
• Identify risks, inefficiencies, edge cases, and performance bottlenecks across varying market conditions
• Summarize strategy performance across scenarios and time horizons with structured, actionable insights
• Validate that strategies align with realistic trading constraints, liquidity conditions, and execution feasibility
• Deliver consistent, high-quality evaluations as part of recurring strategy-review cycles

Who You Are

Must-Have:

• Hands-on experience in systematic or algorithmic trading — you've worked with real strategies in real markets
• Strong command of order types, execution timing, slippage, and market microstructure
• Ability to dissect multi-step trading logic and communicate your findings clearly and precisely
• Analytical mindset with a sharp eye for edge cases and failure modes others might miss

Nice to Have:

• Familiarity with backtesting frameworks or execution-simulation tools
• Experience with quantitative research, strategy development, or trading system architecture
• Background in prop trading, hedge funds, market making, or systematic fund management

• Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
• Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based work
• Put your trading expertise to use in a high-impact domain where your insights directly influence AI development
