Monarch is a frontier markets company building liquidity infrastructure and quant systems for nascent markets.
We are hiring a quant developer with 3-5 years of experience to own Monarch's in-house market-making strategies and high-performance execution systems across frontier markets.
You will research new markets, design trading systems, build and test strategies, deploy them live, and manage the book across spot, perp, and prediction markets. You will be responsible for finding edge, turning research into executable strategies, and building the systems needed to trade them effectively.
This is a full-ownership role with live book responsibility, a fast path from research to deployment, AI-native workflows, and frontier markets upside.
You will join a small, highly ambitious team that values agency, technical rigor, and intense ownership. We work extremely hard together and are looking for people who want the responsibility and upside that come with building early.

What We're Looking For
- 3-5 years of experience in quant research or quant development.
- Strong Python skills and comfort working with live markets.
- Experience developing systematic trading and execution systems.
- Ability to reason clearly about risk, edge, and execution.
- Proficiency using AI workflows to accelerate high-quality technical work.
- High agency and strong work ethic.
Nice To Have
- Experience with prediction or event-driven markets.
- Familiarity with spot/perp mechanics, funding, basis, inventory risk, or hedging.
- Experience building high-performance production systems.
Why Join
- Full ownership over strategy research, deployment, and live performance.
- Direct responsibility for live books and market-making outcomes.
- Fast path from research to production.
- AI-native workflow that augments strong quant and engineering ability.
- Small, elite team with high ambition, strong agency, and intense ownership.
- Exposure to frontier markets before they mature.
- High-growth environment with real ownership and significant upside.
