Senior Crypto Trader & Investment Analyst

Rising Fund - Liquid Crypto Fund

Rising Fund is a liquid crypto fund founded by professionals from traditional finance and digital assets. We actively manage a portfolio of liquid crypto assets while selectively investing in early-stage opportunities. We are seeking a Senior Crypto Trader & Investment Analyst to partner with the Fund Principal in driving trading strategies, research, and portfolio execution.

This role is ideal for a crypto-native trader-researcher with deep knowledge of on-chain markets, DeFi strategies, and tokenomics — someone equally comfortable running directional trades, yield farming, and liquidity management as they are writing high-quality research.

Key Responsibilities:

Trading & Portfolio Execution

  • Execute trades across CEXs and DeFi venues with precision and risk discipline.
  • Actively deploy capital across DeFi strategies (yield farming, liquidity provision, arbitrage) to generate yield while managing risk.
  • Monitor positions, liquidity conditions, and funding dynamics to optimize portfolio performance.
  • Identify and execute directional trades based on fundamental, on-chain, and technical signals.
  • Run scenario analysis, stress tests, and risk frameworks for portfolio hedging and downside protection.

Research & Strategy

  • Conduct in-depth research on protocols, tokens, and sectors to identify asymmetric opportunities.
  • Produce actionable research reports, trade theses, and investment memos.
  • Integrate on-chain analytics, tokenomics, and market structure insights into trading strategies.
  • Contribute to macro/thematic outlooks to shape portfolio positioning.

Collaboration & Reporting

  • Work directly with the Fund Principal on trade ideas, portfolio allocation, and risk frameworks.
  • Support internal reporting, dashboards, and performance attribution.
  • Provide inputs for investor communications, including market commentary and trade rationale.
Requirements:
  • 5–7 years in trading, investment research, or portfolio management; with 2–3+ years direct experience trading crypto (CEX + DeFi).
  • Proven experience in DeFi strategies (yield farming, liquidity provision, staking, arbitrage) and directional crypto trading.
  • Strong knowledge of market microstructure, execution workflows, and risk management in both CEX and DeFi.
  • Ability to produce trade-driven, professional-grade research reports.
  • Advanced analytical skills: valuation, on-chain data, and quantitative modeling.
  • Detail-oriented with strong communication skills (both written reports and trade pitches).
  • Self-starter, able to operate in a fast-paced, global remote setup.
  • Advanced degree in finance, economics, or related field preferred; CFA/MBA a plus.
