Senior Delta-One Trader (Buy side) — RWA & Derivatives | Singapore

Platinum & Partners have been engaged to identify a Senior Delta-One Trader (buy side experience a must either Prop trading house or Hedge Fund) for a fast-growing proprietary trading firm in Singapore with a focus on Real World Asset (RWA) markets and on-chain derivatives. This is an exceptional opportunity for an institutional-grade trader to apply a deeply transferable skillset to one of the most exciting and rapidly expanding corners of global markets.

The Opportunity

To be clear: this is not a role trading traditional ETFs. Our client is looking for someone who already knows how to price, hedge and trade across fragmented, illiquid markets with complex FX overlays — and wants to apply that exact toolkit to the on-chain RWA ecosystem. If you have built your career navigating emerging market ETFs, structured baskets or Delta One desks, the analytical and operational skills you have developed map directly onto what this firm is building. Full global relocation support is provided.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, deploy and run proprietary trading, arbitrage and market-making strategies across tokenised RWAs, Delta One products and crypto futures
• Actively trade and manage positions in futures and Delta One products, optimising for basis risk, funding rates and roll efficiencies
• Manage execution and arbitrage strategies across fragmented CeFi and DeFi venues
• Dynamically hedge multi-variable risk exposures including underlying asset volatility, cross-currency FX risk, basis risk and protocol-level factors
• Partner with quantitative researchers to refine basket pricing models and collaborate with engineers to optimise on-chain execution and capital efficiency
• Serve as the internal domain expert on creation/redemption mechanics and tokenised asset structures

Requirements

• 5+ years of institutional trading experience on an Emerging Markets ETF, Delta One or structured basket trading desk
• Deep technical expertise in pricing complex baskets, managing cross-currency and FX risk, and navigating illiquid, fragmented order books
• Strong working knowledge of Delta One products, linear derivatives and futures market mechanics — basis trading, curve dynamics and hedging
• Proficiency in Python, SQL or R for data analysis, strategy prototyping and post-trade performance review
• Entrepreneurial mindset: comfortable operating in a fast-paced, 24/7 market environment where you are expected to build as well as trade
• Open to relocation to Singapore
• Up to SGD $1,300,000 total package (strong base + bonus + benefits)
