Position Summary

MyFundedFutures is searching for a Quantitative Risk Manager to take ownership of the firm’s risk modeling, trader analytics, and account performance forecasting. This is a high-impact, high-responsibility role at the core of our prop-firm operations. We are looking for someone who thrives in a data-driven, fast-moving, competitive trading environment and can build the systems that protect the firm while enabling scalable growth.

As the Quantitative Risk Manager, you will design, implement, and refine the quantitative frameworks that determine trader viability, payout potential, account survival probability, and overall firm risk exposure. You’ll model everything—from individual trade patterns to portfolio-level risk—while identifying weaknesses, edge, and opportunity across thousands of trader decisions.

This role is for someone who can think like a quant, operate like a risk manager, and execute like a strategist.

Key Responsibilities

Risk Modeling & Analysis

  • Develop predictive models for trader performance, account survival, and risk exposure.
  • Quantify success/failure probabilities across account types, evaluation stages, and live funded accounts.
  • Build risk metrics for trade behaviors, strategy patterns, and volatility sensitivity.

Trader & Account Performance

  • Create frameworks to score and evaluate traders based on historical and real-time behaviors.
  • Analyze trade-by-trade performance to identify edge, risk of ruin, high-risk traders, and outlier strategies.
  • Produce dashboards and reports that surface actionable insights for management.

Operational Risk & Firm Exposure

  • Monitor aggregate risk across the firm and recommend adjustments to rules, scaling plans, and max exposure.
  • Model impact scenarios around payouts, aggressive traders, news events, and market regime shifts.
  • Collaborate closely with leadership to set data-driven risk policies.

Systems & Automation

  • Build or integrate quantitative tools that automate performance tracking, risk alerts, and model refresh cycles.
  • Leverage Python, R, SQL, or similar tools to streamline analysis and monitoring.

Qualifications

Technical Expertise

  • Strong quantitative background (statistics, mathematics, finance, engineering, computer science, etc.).
  • Expertise in modeling, forecasting, or quantitative analysis—ideally in trading, fintech, or risk.
  • Advanced proficiency in Python (NumPy, pandas, SciPy), SQL, and data modeling tools.
  • Ability to work in a high-intensity, competitive environment where accuracy and speed matter.
  • A mindset geared toward continuous improvement, finding edge, and pressure-testing assumptions.
  • Experience with proprietary trading, futures, or derivatives markets is a plus.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
