• Review manager risk frameworks, trading practices, and risk controls.
• Assess manager concentration, style drift, and correlation with existing portfolio allocations.
• Contribute to the optimization of multi-manager portfolio construction from a risk-return perspective.
• Run scenario and stress tests based on historical and hypothetical events (e.g., exchange failures, flash crashes, regulatory changes).
• Model tail risk and extreme event exposures.

Reporting & Communication

• Produce regular and ad-hoc risk reports for internal stakeholders, risk committees, and clients.
• Communicate complex risk insights clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Recommend risk mitigation actions where necessary.

Tooling & Systems

• Work with internal data engineering and quant teams to enhance risk analytics infrastructure.
• Contribute to the development and maintenance of dashboards and tools for real-time risk monitoring.

Required Qualifications and Experience

• 3–5+ years of experience in investment risk analysis, preferably in hedge funds, fund-of-funds, or digital assets.
• Strong knowledge of crypto markets, DeFi, derivatives, and trading venues (CEXs and DEXs).
• Familiarity with on-chain data analytics tools (e.g., Nansen, Dune, Glassnode) is a plus.
• Proficiency in Python, R, SQL, or similar for data analysis and visualization.
• Understanding of portfolio theory, VaR, expected shortfall, stress testing, and scenario analysis.
• Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate across teams.

What Success Looks Like

• Delivering high-quality, actionable risk insights that directly inform portfolio allocation and risk committee decision-making.
• Building scalable processes and tools to systematically monitor risk across a growing set of external managers.
