Market Risk Manager - Cryptocurrency Exchange

About the Role

We are seeking a Market Risk Manager to serve as the strategic architect of our exchange’s risk ecosystem. In this leadership capacity, you will move beyond daily oversight to own the end-to-end market risk strategy across Spot, Derivatives, and Earn portfolios.

• Direct the evolution of risk models for Structured Products and "Earn" portfolios, integrating liquidity and credit risk into a unified market risk view.
• Own the Stress Testing Framework: Oversee the design and execution of VaR, back-testing, and extreme-event simulations, presenting findings directly to the Risk Committee.
• Product Innovation & Risk Architecture: Approve new product launches, serving as the primary risk authority for "Earn" and structured offerings, ensuring risk-return profiles align with capital preservation goals.
• Optimize Greeks Management: Set and enforce mandates for $\Delta, \Gamma, \Theta, \text{and } V$, providing senior-level intervention during limit breaches.
• Liquidity Strategy: Develop proactive protocols to mitigate slippage-related manipulation by synthesizing on-chain and off-chain liquidity intelligence.
• Enterprise Leadership (ERM): Drive the alignment of market risk limits with the broader Enterprise Risk Appetite Statement.
