ABOUT STRING METAVERSE

String Metaverse Limited (BSE: STRING) is a publicly listed company operating at the intersection of Web3, Artificial Intelligence, and high-frequency trading. Our Dubai-headquartered trading desk runs autonomous options strategies on crypto and equity derivatives, with our technology stack spanning Deribit, Tastytrade, Hyperliquid, and Solana-native DeFi protocols. We are building AI agents that trade, reason, and evolve — and we want traders who think the same way.

THE ROLE

You will be a core member of our HFT & Digital Advisory desk, working directly on live derivatives positions, trade reporting, and strategy research. This is not a back-office role — you will be expected to understand live positions, propose strategic improvements, and use AI tools to move faster and think more clearly than a traditional analyst ever could.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

- Monitor and manage live options positions — diagonal spreads, theta strategies, and volatility plays on BTC, ETH, and US equities
- Read, interpret, and act on trade reports — P&L; attribution, Greeks exposure, and drawdown analysis
- Research and back-test options strategies; identify entry and exit signals using data-driven frameworks
- Build and maintain reports, dashboards, and trade logs using AI tools including Claude, Claude Code, and Cursor
- Collaborate with our AI Agents team to feed market insights into autonomous trading agents




- Support on-chain and off-chain trade reconciliation across Deribit, Tastytrade, and Hyperliquid

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

- We evaluate how you think, not what your CV looks like. Inspired by how the world's best trading firms hire, we care about problem-solving, mathematical intuition, and intellectual curiosity above credentials._
- Mathematical intuition — Fast, accurate reasoning about probability, expected value, and risk — you think in distributions, not just averages
- Options literacy — Solid understanding of options payoffs, Greeks (delta, theta, gamma, vega), and how they interact across time and volatility regimes
- Analytical depth — Ability to read a trade report, spot anomalies, and frame a transparent data-backed view of what to do next
- AI fluency — You actively use Claude, ChatGPT, or equivalent AI tools in your daily workflow; bonus if you have used Claude Code, Cursor, or built prompts to automate analytical tasks
- Communication — Ability to explain a complex position or risk scenario concisely, in writing or verbally
- Edge-case thinking — You naturally ask "what could go wrong? " before asking "what is the expected return? "

GOOD TO HAVE

- Exposure to crypto derivatives (Deribit, Bybit, Hyperliquid) or US equity options (Tastytrade, IBKR)
- Familiarity with Python, Excel modelling, or any scripting for data analysis
- Academic background in Mathematics, Statistics, Physics, Computer Science, or Economics
- Understanding of blockchain, DeFi, or on-chain trading mechanics
- Experience with back-testing frameworks or systematic strategy research
