A proprietary equity trading firm, built on trading systems, quantitative research and deep market knowledge

We are hiring a Quantitative Trader

About

De Facto Traders is an independent Danish proprietary trading firm, founded in 2017 and based in central Aarhus. We trade equities across the European markets with our own capital, and we manage no funds for external parties.

Our Business

All our models and tools are our own. We use them to quantify edges and execute on them, and all of our attention goes into research, systems and execution. Because we trade our own book, our research is tested in the market every day. To reduce the volatility of our results, we hedge out general market movements and stay market-neutral.

The Team

We are a small team of traders, quantitative researchers and developers, with expertise in equity markets, risk management and engineering. Decision paths are short, and you see the effect of your work the same trading day.

Career

We always like to hear from talented and ambitious traders, quantitative researchers and developers. If you want to work on hard problems with real autonomy and own your work end to end, our door is open for a cup of coffee.

The people who do their best work here share four values:

  • Ambition Never stop raising the bar.
  • Curiosity Question, test and update.
  • Grit Stay focused and push through obstacles.
  • Ownership Build it, support it, improve it.
