The Trading Track within the Scalable Capital Graduate Program offers a distinctive pathway to initiate your career in trading and capital markets, equipping you for a role at our expanding trading desk. This track is designed for young professionals and (post-) graduates with a passion for financial markets and trading methodologies, coupled with a strong inclination towards technology and programming languages.

Throughout the Trading Track, you will acquire comprehensive knowledge about capital markets, market structures (including various trading venues, on-exchange and OTC trading, execution strategies), and the nuances of our trading operations.

Rotation 1: Wealth Management
You will assist the Wealth Management team with ongoing research on financial instruments traded by the desk, flows, and trading metrics, while also contributing to the enhancement of in-house trading systems alongside the product, engineering, and trading teams. This includes internal pre- and post-trade evaluations and market monitoring (FX, yields, spreads, etc.).

Continuous market monitoring, instrument oversight, and open order management will be part of your responsibilities, along with the development and application of risk management practices.

Daily challenges will include developing discretionary and B2B wealth allocation models that optimize risk, cost, and tax considerations. You will customize smart rebalancing and cash-flow management strategies across diverse tax regimes in a serverless architecture, and create interactive web dashboards for trade monitoring, historical analysis, and model validation.

Learning Outcomes: Learn to bridge the gap between research and application by productionizing econometric models that autonomously respond to market fluctuations and client demands across numerous individual portfolios. Master best practices in software development and seamlessly integrate production-level software into the R&D environment. Embrace agile methodologies, learn to deliver scientific concepts rapidly, and thrive in a culture where the best ideas prevail.
