Why join Flowdesk? You’ll be joining a company operating at the intersection of finance, technology, and crypto; solving complex market problems, building critical infrastructure, and helping shape how digital assets connect to global liquidity.

Role Description

The OTC Derivatives desk runs Flowdesk’s crypto derivatives trading. The desk prices and manages options books across major digital assets, provides liquidity on exchanges and to OTC counterparties, and works closely with the Engineering teams to build and improve the pricing, hedging, and risk tooling that supports it.

We are hiring a Junior Options Trader to join either the Singapore OR NYC desk. You will help run the day-to-day options book: monitoring Greeks and exposures, executing hedges, quoting clients, and tracking P&L. You will report to the Head of OTC Derivatives Trading and work alongside quants and engineers to sharpen trading strategies and automate desk workflows.

This is a hands-on role with real risk responsibility from early on, operating in a 24/7 market. It suits someone with solid options fundamentals who wants to grow quickly in digital asset derivatives.

• Price and quote options for OTC clients and on exchange venues, ensuring competitive and risk-aware spreads
• Execute hedging and rebalancing trades across spot, perpetuals, futures, and options
• Monitor and report daily P&L, attributing performance to Greeks, volatility moves, and flow
• Track volatility surfaces, skew, and term structure, flagging dislocations and trading opportunities to the desk
• Work with the Quant and Engineering teams to test, refine, and automate pricing, hedging, and risk tools
• Follow internal risk controls and compliance procedures, escalating limit breaches and operational issues promptly
• Contribute market insights and analysis that inform desk strategy and new product ideas
