Alphextra is a quant HFT firm running systematic strategies across NSE, BSE, MCX, and crypto markets. Small team, real markets, no bureaucracy. Every person here owns their work — and that ownership is visible in live P&L.;
The role
We're looking for someone to own the operational health of our trading systems and exchange connections. This isn't a passive monitoring job — you're the first line of response when something goes wrong during market hours, and you'll build the tools and processes that make sure it happens less often.
What you'll do
Monitor live trading systems and exchange connections across NSE, BSE, MCX, or crypto during market hours (different shifts for MCX and Crypto)
Triage incidents rapid — identify root cause, contain impact, escalate intelligently
Write and maintain Python scripts for automated monitoring, alerting, and reporting
Handle EOD reconciliations, position reports
Work with the quant and engineering team to improve system observability over time
What we're looking for
Must-have:
1–3 years in trading ops, exchange operations, or technical support in financial markets
Understanding of NSE/BSE/MCX
Working Python — you can read, write, and debug scripts
Linux comfort
Calm and structured when things go wrong
Nice-to-have:
Familiarity with crypto exchange operations or APIs
Exposure to FIX protocol or exchange connectivity
