A quantitative trading firm at the forefront of finance & technology
About
Who We Are
Whistler Trading was founded in 2022 with the ambition to build a new leader in systematic trading — and we’re well on our way. We’ve invested heavily in research and infrastructure, developing lean, high-performance systems that let us go from idea to production faster than ever.
Most importantly, we’ve built a team with incredible talent density. It’s a lean, collaborative group where every member plays a vital role and grows alongside the firm. Everyone is expected to contribute, learn from one another, and help each other succeed.
Careers
Our edge comes from the people we hire and how we work together.
We’re building a team of exceptional researchers, engineers, and operators. Our team includes alumni of top firms like Citadel and SIG, medalists from math and informatics olympiads, and individuals with deep domain expertise in trading, distributed systems, and real-time infrastructure. We value drive, rigor, and originality — and we back people who want to build something lasting.
We believe in merit, not hierarchy.
We run a lean, collaborative organization where the best ideas win no matter where they come from. Everyone is expected to contribute, challenge assumptions, and push the boundaries of what’s possible. High performance is recognized, rewarded, and expected.
We value clarity over complexity.
We don’t do politics or performative processes. We aim for clear thinking, direct communication, and execution that compounds over time. People here take ownership and are trusted to make good decisions.
We look for people who love the work.
If you’re deeply curious, fiercely driven, and motivated to work with people who feel the same, you’ll thrive here. When markets get turbulent, we lean in. This is a place for builders, not tourists.
