What they do

GSR calls itself crypto's capital markets partner. It makes markets and gives liquidity on more than 60 exchanges. It also runs an over-the-counter (OTC) desk, which trades direct with clients. It invests in early-stage companies, gives advice to token issuers, and manages assets, such as ETFs. It also trades with its own capital.

What they value

• Integrity
• Innovation
• Performance

Where they hire

The board has five roles. Some name more than one city: four name London, three name Singapore, and one names Zug. No role is remote. Roles use a hybrid pattern across offices in London, the US, Singapore, Zug, and Málaga. Four roles offer immigration and relocation support where it is necessary.

Teams and roles

All five roles are in trading or trading technology.

• Quant traders in Singapore and in DeFi, or decentralized finance on blockchains (London, Zug, or Singapore), build and run trading strategies and algorithms.
• A quant developer in London builds strategies for market making, proprietary trading, and OTC, and helps on the trading systems in Rust.
• A senior low-latency engineer, who makes trades run fast, in London builds parts of the trading platform in Rust, in a team of five.
• A senior OTC trader in Singapore or London prices and executes trades for clients in crypto spot and derivatives markets.

What they look for

Most roles ask for a degree in mathematics, physics, computer science, or a related subject, or equal practical experience. Quant and trading roles ask for strong quantitative skills and code to analyze data. Roles that are close to the trading systems ask for Rust, or C++ and Python. The low-latency role asks for seven or more years in fintech and for experience with low-latency, distributed systems. Trading roles ask for an interest in crypto markets. Prior crypto experience helps but is not always necessary. The OTC role asks for a record of new client flow and revenue.
