Graduate Algorithmic Trader 2023 London / Trading / Full-time / On-site About Wintermute At Wintermute our mission is to enable, empower and advance the truly decentralized world for more transparent and efficient markets and products. We do this by providing liquidity algorithmically across most trading venues in crypto, supporting all major centralized and decentralized trading venues, AMMs, RFQs, aggregators and chains. Wintermute is also offering best-in-class OTC products to crypto native as well as traditional financial institutions. Wintermute is actively participating in the building and development of the blockchain ecosystem through investments from Wintermute Ventures, partnerships and co-development with upcoming protocols and incubation of own projects. We act as official liquidity providers for a large number of the world's highest profile blockchain projects. Wintermute is a hyper-growth highly profitable business with a very ambitious vision and roadmap. We manage billions of dollars in assets and trade more than $5B/day. We are backed by Lightspeed, Pantera Capital, Sino Global Capital, Ventures, Avon Ventures by Fidelity Investments, DeFi Alliance and other top tier investors. We are run as a technology company, not a financial service provider, and we build our culture around core values of ambition, collaboration, entrepreneurship, transparency and meritocracy. Working at Wintermute We are looking for an Algorithmic Trader with strong coding skills (Python) and a curiosity about HFT, liquidity provision and crypto trading. At Wintermute, you will be responsible for your own "desk" right from the start. You will have the opportunity to develop your own product (trading algorithms, trading strategies), while also getting advice and guidance from very experienced traders and developers, including the founders/management team. You will get a lot of independence and responsibility right away, and you'll learn at an unprecedented speed! No legacy systems, no corporate bureaucracy, no multiple levels of approvals. It is up to you to make an impact. You will act like an owner and your incentives (incl. equity) will be completely aligned with those of the company! What will you work on After a short training period, you'll be tasked with improving existing strategies, adding new trading products and improving the technology behind our trading systems. You'll need to analyze large amounts of trading and transaction data, generate insights, prioritize them and build solutions based on your findings. You can expect to be able to make an immediate impact on P&L and will be encouraged to explore new ideas and strategies. We will share more technical details in the interviews. The point is: there is no limit set by the company! Note: we are looking for people with strong quantitative and coding skills, but this is a business/trading (not a research) role first and foremost. Hard Skills Requirements Strong Python skills - you have 1-3 years of experience coding in Python, be that through work, study or personal project experience - we will test! Excellent quantitative and analytical skills - we will test! Trading knowledge isn't required but a strong willingness and curiosity to learn algorithmic, high-frequency, quantitative and liquidity provision trading is crucial. Strong interest and curiosity in blockchain, crypto and DeFi - you like keeping track of major news and developments in the crypto world. Other Requirements Have an owner mentality - you focus on ultimate result (short and long-term P&L for the company), focus on strategically growing the business for the future vs "cashing-in" fast. Love problem solving, and love seeing your products work; you do whatever it takes to do what's needed (trading, coding, analysing data, collaborating). Determined, ambitious yet humble, willing to work hard and learn on the way. Like meritocracy and being judged by what you deliver. Have an entrepreneurial mindset versus working 9-to-5 mentality; prepared to work non-standard working hours (since we are a high-growth startup operating in 24/7 crypto world). Like working in a team environment (not fully remote), at least 75% working from our London office. Wintermute Offer A unique opportunity to work on very interesting projects, get the level of responsibility and ownership that would take 5-10 years longer to get in a traditional trading company/bank/hedge fund. A unique opportunity to join one of the fastest growing and most innovative algorithmic trading companies in the world. Great culture: highly professional and ambitious, yet informal, non-hierarchical, collaborative and entrepreneurial; we are very flat and hands-on environment - you will work very closely with the CEO, CTO, Head of Trading and the rest of the management team. No legacy systems and bureaucracy; access to high performance low latency infrastructure. A cool office in central London with a sci-fi touch. Aligned incentive structure: a significant part of your compensation is performance-based with substantial upside. Tips for Successful Application Only apply to us if you are genuinely interested or curious about this role and the space; this is not for someone who is just looking for "a job" or is looking to maximize their short-term fixed salary. Do your research: look at our website and social media channels. Write us a short, honest, and direct message if you'd like to apply. Tell us about why you are interested in crypto and liquidity provision in general and in Wintermute in particular. Do not send us generic copy paste applications, we are looking for authentic people who share our interests, values and ambitions! If you don't have some obviously matching experience or skills, make sure you state very clearly what you can bring or how your experience is relevant (but note, we do require Python knowledge). Prepare to be tested on your Python knowledge. Your knowledge and ability to get things done fast is very important to us. Do your homework on what HFT/liquidity provision/algo trading is. (Hint: we are not in the business of position taking, directional betting, stock/token picking, technical analysis, "AI" (as in the buzz-word) and we are not a research business for the sake of research). We get a lot of applications, so unfortunately, we won't be able to proceed if you simply press "submit button"; we do promise to reply to everyone who puts time and effort into making the application relevant! Application Process Online Coding and Quantitative reasoning tests. 1st Round - 30-45mins interview with a Trader. 2nd Round - 30-45mins interview with a Trader. 3rd Round - 45 mins interview with the Head of Trading. 4th Round - 45 mins interview with the Head of Talent or COO.

About us Food waste is a $1 trillion problem - costing the world over 1% of global GDP. We're dead set on solving the problem and looking for people to help us achieve our mission. We, at Winnow, believe that food is far too valuable to waste, and that technology can transform the way we produce food. Our team is made of people who all share a passion for food and technology. Winnow was founded in London in 2013 to help the hospitality industry prevent food waste through internet of things tools in the kitchen. We have worked with hundreds of sites and are operating in over 70 countries around the world supported by our offices in London, Dubai, Shanghai, Singapore, Romania and North America. We are a rapidly growing company with a strong base of clients who are rolling out our system globally. We have blue-chip customers including Accor Hotels, IKEA, IHG, Marriott, Compass Group and many others. Winnow's clients on average reduce waste by over 50% by value and sustain savings. Winnow has now worked with hundreds of sites to reduce food waste, including hotels, universities and schools, staff restaurants, event/hospitality kitchens, buffets, pubs, and high street restaurants. Where the system is permanently adopted, pre-consumer waste value is reduced by 50% - 70% with no detrimental impact to the perceived quality or value of the offer to their customers. This represents a typical improvement of food cost savings of 3% to 8%, commonly a 40%+ increase in profitability for operations. As the global leader in addressing food waste, we are committed to continue pushing the envelope on what technology can do to solve this problem. Winnow Vision, our new artificial intelligence-based technology, is trained to automatically track all food waste thrown away. It has won awards at the World Economic Forum and has received tremendous enthusiasm from our clients and the industry. You can read more about it on our website and this article in Forbes.

Done is better than perfect, and we learn by boldly doing then rapidly improving. We're breaking new ground, so we know things might go wrong. But we judge ourselves and each other on our reaction and our resilience. Bound by food. We're a diverse bunch, but our belief in the value of food is the common thread in everything we do. With each other, we celebrate through our love and respect for food. With our customers, it means we work hard to develop creative tools to make it easy for chefs to value food. Hungry and humble.

About us Food waste is a $1 trillion problem - costing the world over 1% of global GDP. We're dead set on solving the problem and looking for people to help us achieve our mission. We, at Winnow, believe that food is far too valuable to waste, and that technology can transform the way we produce food. Our team is made of people who all share a passion for food and technology. Winnow was founded in London in 2013 to help the hospitality industry prevent food waste through internet of things tools in the kitchen. We have worked with hundreds of sites and are operating in over 70 countries around the world supported by our offices in London, Dubai, Shanghai, Singapore, Romania and North America. We are a rapidly growing company with a strong base of clients who are rolling out our system globally. We have blue-chip customers including Accor Hotels, IKEA, IHG, Marriott, Compass Group and many others. Winnow's clients on average reduce waste by over 50% by value and sustain savings. Winnow has now worked with hundreds of sites to reduce food waste, including hotels, universities and schools, staff restaurants, event/hospitality kitchens, buffets, pubs, and high street restaurants. Where the system is permanently adopted, pre-consumer waste value is reduced by 50% - 70% with no detrimental impact to the perceived quality or value of the offer to their customers. This represents a typical improvement of food cost savings of 3% to 8%, commonly a 40%+ increase in profitability for operations. As the global leader in addressing food waste, we are committed to continue pushing the envelope on what technology can do to solve this problem. Winnow Vision, our new artificial intelligence-based technology, is trained to automatically track all food waste thrown away. It has won awards at the World Economic Forum and has received tremendous enthusiasm from our clients and the industry. You can read more about it on our website and this article in Forbes. Other recent accolades saw Winnow awarded a winner of Impact 50's most impactful companies to work for. You can read more about it here . We are passionate about living our values and place them at the centre of everything we do. We are excited about like minded talent who share these values, joining us in our mission: Equal parts head and heart. We're both passionate and measured. We carefully balance the need for quick solutions and pragmatism with the ability to step back, take in the bigger picture and build for the long term. Bravely honest. With each other, that means we're a transparent organisation where healthy, respectful debate is encouraged. With our customers, we challenge them if we don't think they're achieving their goals, whether they be environmental or financial. People of action. Done is better than perfect, and we learn by boldly doing then rapidly improving. We're breaking new ground, so we know things might go wrong. But we judge ourselves and each other on our reaction and our resilience. Bound by food. We're a diverse bunch, but our belief in the value of food is the common thread in everything we do. With each other, we celebrate through our love and respect for food. With our customers, it means we work hard to develop creative tools to make it easy for chefs to value food. Hungry and humble. Our product is revolutionary, our people are impressive, and we're hungry for change. But, we're just the catalyst for a bigger movement. We stay humble regardless of our success, and make chefs the heroes in this journey. People and planet positive.

The Boston Youth Symphony Orchestras (BYSO) is one of the most prestigious youth orchestras in the nation. A nonprofit organization dedicated to transforming young lives through exceptional classical music education, BYSO offers world-class training and performance opportunities for nearly 600 musicians, ages four to 18, from Greater Boston and throughout New England. BYSO's programs include three full symphonic orchestras, two string training orchestras, chamber ensembles, a preparatory wind ensemble, and the nationally acclaimed Intensive Community Program (ICP). ICP is a training program that provides rigorous music instruction to students from underrepresented communities with a 10-year pathway to artistic mastery through weekly lessons, instrument access, and financial aid. ICP students spend an average of 10 years with BYSO, and 95% of them audition into one of BYSO's top two ensembles. All ICP graduates go on to enroll in a 4-year college or university. This commitment to access and equity has been central to BYSO's mission since its inception, ensuring that high-quality classical music experiences are available to all. BYSO is one of the only youth orchestras in the world to present a full-length opera production every year as an integral part of its season. Since 2008, the opera program has provided young musicians in the Boston Youth Symphony (BYS, the top orchestra) an invaluable musical and intellectual experience in the training, understanding, and appreciation of the full range of classical repertoire. Lead roles are sung by top international artists, and the 1000+ seat performance venue sells out every year. BYSO has also performed in iconic venues such as Boston Symphony Hall and other significant cultural venues in Boston and Europe over the last 67 years, including international stages like the Mozarteum in Salzburg and Vienna's Stephansdom. Founded in 1958, BYSO has grown into a global leader in classical music education. The 2024 opening of the BYSO Youth Center for Music (YCM) marks a transformative milestone, providing the first permanent home for its programs and advancing its mission. YCM, located at 235 Huntington Avenue, is a beacon of Boston's commitment to the arts and children, offering state-of-the-art facilities and expanded rehearsal spaces. The development of YCM is being executed in two phases, each designed to address critical needs and expand BYSO's reach. Phase One (): Establishing a Permanent Home Phase One focused on securing BYSO's future by acquiring a long-term lease for 235 Huntington Avenue, an iconic building in the Back Bay neighborhood. Phase One successfully concluded by: Establishing BYSO's home on the highly visible, historic landmark plaza, across from Symphony Hall. Creating a permanent home for the ICP by housing its full programs, including weekly lessons and ensembles. Providing BYSO with additional rehearsal space for its growing orchestras, thereby alleviating the need for more practice space under its current partnership with Boston University. Expanding educational opportunities and weekday programming for all students. With a total cost of $26 million, raised by October 2024, Phase One represents a significant achievement in BYSO's history, establishing the foundation for an ambitious future vision. Phase Two (by 2031): Expanding for the Future Phase Two will build on the success of Phase One by addressing BYSO's long-term needs and aspirations. Plans include a three-story addition to the existing building, further renovations to YCM to enhance functionality, and a substantial expansion of the endowment. Key goals include: Centralizing programming at the YCM, eliminating reliance on Boston University facilities. Expanding ICP by 100% over 10 years to 200 students. Adding new orchestras and ensembles to meet demand for BYSO programs. Growing weekday programming for BYSO students and the broader Boston community. Creating meaningful partnerships with other Boston organizations to enhance the lives of children and families through the power of music. The BYSO Team and Financial Overview Federico Cortese assumed the post of Music Director of the BYSO in 1999. He has conducted symphony and opera orchestras throughout the United States, Australia, China, and Europe. He is also the Music Director of the Harvard-Radcliffe Orchestra and Senior Lecturer on Music at Harvard University. From he served as Assistant Conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra under Seiji Ozawa. In January 2025, BYSO announced the retirement of its current President & CEO, Catherine Weiskel, after 28 years of extraordinary service and leadership. Catherine has been a driving force behind the organization's remarkable growth and impact. In partnership with Music Director Federico Cortese, the organization significantly increased the number and diversity of children involved, expanded its annual operating budget, and established itself as a cornerstone of music education in Boston and beyond. BYSO has a 27-member Board of Directors, led by Margaret Chen, as well as an Advisory Board and BYSO Council. The President & CEO oversees approximately 18 administrative staff and the Music Director supervises eight artistic team members. BYSO values fiscal sustainability. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, BYSO anticipates total revenues of approximately $5.1 million with $3.2 million from program services and $1.9 million from contributions and grants. BYSO is grateful to the generosity of its many donors and has a restricted endowment that exceeds $13 million, plus cash reserves in preparation for a sizable Phase Two integrated capital, endowment, and operating campaign. Community Home to more than 4.9 million people, the City of Boston and the Boston-Cambridge-Newton metropolitan area are New England's economic and cultural hub. Greater Boston is the 11th largest metropolitan area in the United States. The area has a vibrant post-secondary population with more than 200,000 students and an exciting blend of cultures.

BYSO is one of the only youth orchestras in the world to present a full-length opera production every year as an integral part of its season. Since 2008, the opera program has provided young musicians in the Boston Youth Symphony (BYS, the top orchestra) an invaluable musical and intellectual experience in the training, understanding, and appreciation of the full range of classical repertoire. Lead roles are sung by top international artists, and the 1000+ seat performance venue sells out every year. BYSO has also performed in iconic venues such as Boston Symphony Hall and other significant cultural venues in Boston and Europe over the last 67 years, including international stages like the Mozarteum in Salzburg and Vienna's Stephansdom. Founded in 1958, BYSO has grown into a global leader in classical music education. The 2024 opening of the BYSO Youth Center for Music (YCM) marks a transformative milestone, providing the first permanent home for its programs and advancing its mission. YCM, located at 235 Huntington Avenue, is a beacon of Boston's commitment to the arts and children, offering state-of-the-art facilities and expanded rehearsal spaces. The development of YCM is being executed in two phases, each designed to address critical needs and expand BYSO's reach. Phase One (): Establishing a Permanent Home Phase One focused on securing BYSO's future by acquiring a long-term lease for 235 Huntington Avenue, an iconic building in the Back Bay neighborhood. Phase One successfully concluded by: Establishing BYSO's home on the highly visible, historic landmark plaza, across from Symphony Hall. Creating a permanent home for the ICP by housing its full programs, including weekly lessons and ensembles. Providing BYSO with additional rehearsal space for its growing orchestras, thereby alleviating the need for more practice space under its current partnership with Boston University. Expanding educational opportunities and weekday programming for all students. With a total cost of $26 million, raised by October 2024, Phase One represents a significant achievement in BYSO's history, establishing the foundation for an ambitious future vision. Phase Two (by 2031): Expanding for the Future Phase Two will build on the success of Phase One by addressing BYSO's long-term needs and aspirations. Plans include a three-story addition to the existing building, further renovations to YCM to enhance functionality, and a substantial expansion of the endowment. Key goals include: Centralizing programming at the YCM, eliminating reliance on Boston University facilities. Expanding ICP by 100% over 10 years to 200 students. Adding new orchestras and ensembles to meet demand for BYSO programs. Growing weekday programming for BYSO students and the broader Boston community. Creating meaningful partnerships with other Boston organizations to enhance the lives of children and families through the power of music.
