  • Manage relationships with brokers, exchanges, trading platforms, and API providers to optimize infrastructure and execution
  • Partner with legal and compliance teams to ensure regulatory alignment across all strategies
  • Lead long-term scaling initiatives : expanding AUM, diversifying strategies, and raising external capital
