## On-Chain Quant Researcher | Crypto Trading We're working with several crypto trading firms looking for researchers who can extract alpha from blockchain data. The work spans building data pipelines from on-chain sources, parsing smart contract logs (EVM/Solana/Cosmos), classifying wallet addresses, and turning it all into tradeable signals. You'd be working closely with traders and quants – what you build goes straight into production. **Key Responsibilities:** - Build data pipelines from on-chain sources - Parse smart contract logs (EVM, Solana, Cosmos) - Classify wallet addresses and entities - Develop and implement tradeable signals from on-chain data - Collaborate directly with traders and quantitative researchers **Requirements:** - Strong proficiency in Python and SQL - Comfort working with messy, unstructured blockchain data **Bonus Qualifications:** - Experience running node infrastructure - Direct experience working with DeFi protocols - Exposure to Rust or Solidity - Prior experience at a trading firm, a blockchain protocol, or as an independent researcher Prior trading firm experience is great but not essential – if you've been doing this at a protocol, as an independent researcher, or you're just deep in the weeds on-chain, let's talk. *When applying, mention the word **CANDYSHOP** to show you read the job post completely.*
