Edge Infrastructure Engineer in Amsterdam

About BlockTech BlockTech is an algorithmic trading firm operating at the frontier of global crypto derivatives and spot markets. We trade 24/7 across some of the fastest-moving, most data-rich venues in finance. Crypto remains one of the few markets where a researcher can still meaningfully move the edge: abundant data, novel microstructure, and the shortest possible loop between a research idea and live PnL. We're looking for an experienced Quantitative Researcher to take ownership of that edge and push it further. The role This is a senior, hands-on research seat on our trading floor. You'll own a research agenda end-to-end from hypothesis, dataset construction, feature engineering, model training, backtesting, live deployment, monitoring, and iteration. You'll be trusted to set its direction. You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with fellow researchers, traders and analysts, shape how we price and trade, and help raise the bar for research across the floor, including mentoring less experienced researchers and influencing the tools and standards the team relies on. You will: Own price-prediction, signal, execution, and anomaly-detection models across crypto derivatives and spot markets from idea to live PnL using state-of-the-art ML Shape our research, backtesting, and trading infrastructure together with engineers, so good ideas reach production quickly and safely Own models in production: monitor live performance, diagnose decay, and iterate on what you ship Set research direction alongside traders, deciding which trades are worth making and why Raise the research bar by mentoring colleagues, reviewing work, and setting standards for rigour What we're looking for 4+ years of hands-on quantitative research and/or applied ML experience, with a track record of models you've taken into production trading live A strong academic foundation in a quantitative discipline (mathematics, physics, statistics, computer science, ML/AI, or similar) Fluency in Python and the modern

About BlockTech BlockTech is a fast-paced algorithmic trading firm at the frontier of global cryptocurrency derivatives and spot markets. We trade 24/7 across some of the most data-rich, fast-moving venues in finance, and we use that data to build smarter models, sharper signals, and more adaptive systems. Crypto is one of the few markets where a researcher can still meaningfully move the edge. The data is abundant, the microstructure is novel, and the feedback loop between a research idea and live PnL couldn’t be shorter. We’re growing fast, and we’re looking for a Quantitative Researcher with a strong machine learning toolkit to help us push that edge further. The role As a Quantitative Researcher on our trading floor, you’ll own ideas end-to-end from hypothesis and dataset construction through feature engineering, model training and backtesting, all the way to live deployment, monitoring, and iterative improvement. You’ll sit shoulder-to-shoulder with Quantitative Traders and Quantitative Analysts, and your work will directly drive how we price and trade. You will: Collaborate closely with traders to translate research insights into systematic trading strategies Design, develop and deploy models for price prediction, signal generation, execution, and anomaly detection across crypto derivatives and spot markets using state-of-the-art AI and ML techniques. Build robust trading, backtesting and research infrastructure alongside our engineers, so promising ideas can move into production quickly and safely Own models in production: monitoring live performance, diagnosing decay, and iterating on what you ship What we're looking for A strong academic background in a quantitative discipline (Mathematics, Physics, Statistics, Computer Science, Econometrics, ML/AI, or similar), typically a PhD or an MSc with strong research experience Fluency in Python and the modern ML stack (PyTorch and/or TensorFlow, scikit-learn, NumPy, pandas) A deep, intuitive grasp of overfitting, g

About BlockTech BlockTech is an algorithmic trading firm operating at the frontier of global crypto derivatives and spot markets. We trade 24/7 across some of the fastest-moving, most data-rich venues in finance. Crypto is one of the few markets where the gap between a good model and live PnL comes down to how fast and how reliably you can ship it. Abundant data, novel microstructure, and a short path to production mean the quality of our infrastructure directly moves the edge. We're looking for a Quantitative Developer to build that infrastructure and get our models into production. The role This is a hands-on engineering seat on our trading floor. You'll own the infrastructure that turns research models into production trading systems, working primarily in Python and Rust, the language our models and systems are written in. You'll build the frameworks and tooling that let quants ship their code to production and keep those systems running once they're live. You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with researchers, traders, and fellow engineers, building the tooling, pipelines, and standards that let good ideas reach production quickly and safely, and helping raise the engineering bar across the floor. You will Build and own the infrastructure that takes models from research to production - data pipelines, backtesting, deployment, and monitoring. Turn research prototypes into robust, performant, production-grade code that runs reliably in live trading Work closely with quantitative researchers and traders to get new models live quickly and safely Own the systems you ship in production: monitor performance, diagnose issues, and keep latency and reliability high Improve the tools, standards, and pipelines the team relies on, raising the engineering bar across the floor What we're looking for 2+ years of software engineering experience, with a track record of shipping production-grade systems A strong academic foundation in a STEM discipline (computer science, mathematics, p
