We are a proprietary trading firm established in 2016, boasts offices in Las Vegas and Chicago. Specializing in speculative, active trading of global futures, the company employs medium-frequency, 100% automated strategies that span major US futures markets, including CME, NYMEX, CBOT, COMEX, ICE, and NYBOT.

Key Duties and Responsibilities:
In this role, reporting directly to the COO, the ideal candidate is an adept Python developer with experience in futures trading.
