You will design, build, and operate the strategies behind one of the largest asset managers in onchain finance. Gauntlet serves $1.5B+ in client TVL, and the vaults that hold it run on strategies that quant developers on our team build, ship, and stand behind. This is not a research seat where models get handed off to someone else's pipeline — you design the strategy, write the code, deploy it, and own it in production. If you want your models allocating real capital onchain within weeks of joining, read on.
ABOUT GAUNTLET
Gauntlet builds the financial systems of the future. While much of onchain finance is focused on point solutions, we operate across the entire stack to offer best-in-class vault products. Today we serve over $1.5B in client TVL across some of the largest fintechs/neobanks, protocols, exchanges, and capital allocators in crypto — and, increasingly, traditional asset management. Our team brings together traditional finance and crypto-native expertise to deliver durable, sophisticated products for institutional clients moving onchain.
THE ROLE
Depending on your background and interests, you'll join one of our vault strategy teams. Our strategies span lending and credit curation, cross-chain yield aggregation, structured products, RWAs, and more. Teams own the full strategy lifecycle: research and protocol due diligence, strategy design and backtesting, allocation and rebalancing engines, onchain execution and optimization, and 24/7 monitoring of live positions. You own strategies end-to-end and are accountable for their performance, safety, and uptime.
WHAT YOU'LL DO;
- Design and ship vault strategies: take a strategy from thesis and design doc through implementation, simulation, deployment, and live operation — RWAs, leveraged lending, yield aggregation, cross-protocol allocation, perpetuals, prediction markets, and new product types we haven't built yet
- Optimize strategies: signals research, execution optimization, gas-aware rebalancing across tokens and chains, liquidity and duration management
- Run protocol and asset due diligence: evaluate new protocols, collateral assets, and chains for inclusion in strategies — solvency mechanics, oracle design, redemption paths, liquidity depth, and more
- Own risk parameters: supply caps, LLTV settings, concentration limits, VaR-based exposure models, and automated de-risking logic that pulls positions when conditions deteriorate
- Integrate new protocols and chains: build and validate adapters for lending markets, DEX aggregators, and bridges; verify strategy behavior against forked-chain simulation before capital touches it
- Monitor what you build: extend our risk-monitoring and alerting systems, define the conditions that page someone, and participate in the on-call rotation for the strategies you own
- Support launches and clients: partner with growth, capital markets, and client teams on new vault and strategy launches
WHAT YOU BRING;
- A track record of building quantitative systems that run in production — algorithmic trading, portfolio optimization, market making, or risk systems at a trading firm, asset manager, fintech, or crypto-native company. This is often 2-8 years of experience, but we weight what you've built over years on a résumé
- You write the code behind your strategies. Strong Python and solid software-engineering fundamentals: testing, code review, and the judgment to build durable abstractions rather than one-off scripts. This is a hands-on, quantitative role — not a discretionary trading seat
- Applied quantitative skills: optimization, statistics, and simulation, and the instinct to validate models against real data before trusting them
- Comfort with data infrastructure: SQL and experience building or consuming data pipelines
- Production ownership: you've debugged live systems under pressure and understand that a strategy managing other people's money has to be correct, monitored, and recoverable
- Clear technical communication
BONUS POINTS
- Hands-on DeFi experience: lending protocols, ERC-4626 vaults, AMMs, or oracle systems — as a builder or a sophisticated user
- Solidity / EVM literacy: reading protocol contracts, forked-chain simulation (anvil), or writing adapters; non-EVM experience (e.g., Solana) also valued
- On-chain operational experience: multisig workflows, transaction submission and signing infrastructure, bridging
- TypeScript, and familiarity with a modern data stack (e.g., BigQuery, Dagster, Hex, GCP/Kubernetes)
- Experience with risk modeling for volatile or thinly-traded assets: VaR, liquidation modeling, stress testing
WHO THRIVES HERE;
- Wants end-to-end ownership — research, code, deployment, and the pager — not a hand-off between research and engineering
- Comfortable that crypto markets don't close. Strategy owners take on-call seriously, and the occasional market-event night is part of the job; we staff and rotate to keep it sustainable
- Operates well in ambiguity: can take "we should have a strategy for X" and return a scoped design, not a list of questions — and is comfortable in a fast-moving space where priorities and team structure evolve
- Holds a genuine risk view and voices it — including "we shouldn't do this" when the analysis says so
- Pragmatic about shipping: balances rigor against client timelines without cutting corners on safety
- Naturally curious about digital assets and DeFi. Deep crypto experience is not required — curiosity and strong quant fundamentals are
BENEFITS & PERKS;
- Remote first — work from anywhere in the US & Canada
- Regular in-person company retreats and cross-country "office visit" perk
- 100% paid medical, dental, and vision premiums for employees
- $1,000 WFH stipend
- Monthly reimbursement for home internet, phone, and cellular data
- Unlimited vacation
- 100% paid parental leave of 12 weeks
- Fertility benefits
- Opportunity for incentive compensation
Please note at this time our hiring is reserved for potential employees who are able to work within the contiguous United States and Canada. Should you need alternative accommodations, please note that in your application.
The national pay range for this role is $175,000 - $200,000 base plus additional On Target Earnings potential by level and equity in the company. Our salary ranges are based on paying competitively for a company of our size and industry, and are one part of many compensation, benefits, and other reward opportunities we provide. Individual pay rate decisions are based on a number of factors, including qualifications for the role, experience level, skill set, and balancing internal equity relative to peers at the company.
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding TN Visa Sponsorship as a Quantitative Analyst
Document your quantitative degree match precisely
TN visa classification for quant roles hinges on your degree aligning with economist, mathematician, or statistician categories. A generic 'business' degree without a quantitative concentration will draw scrutiny at the port of entry, so pull your official transcripts and have your institution confirm the degree field on paper.
Target banks and asset managers with dedicated quant desks
Firms running systematic trading, risk modeling, or derivatives pricing hire quants regularly and have internal immigration teams familiar with TN filings. Prioritize employers who already have TN holders on staff, as they'll know exactly what the support letter needs to say.
Request a detailed employer support letter upfront
The TN support letter must specify your job duties, the USMCA professional category, your degree field, and your start date. Vague letters describing you as an 'analyst' rather than explicitly citing economist or mathematician duties are a common reason for secondary inspection delays.
Understand Mexican nationals face a TN numerical cap
Unlike Canadians who obtain TN status directly at the border, Mexican nationals must apply at a U.S. consulate, and an annual cap of 5,500 TNs applies. Time your job offer acceptance and application to avoid filing late in a fiscal year when allocations run thin.
Use Migrate Mate to find employers with visa filing experience
Searching broadly for quant roles wastes time on employers unfamiliar with visa sponsorship. Migrate Mate filters specifically for employers with recent visa filings in quantitative and data roles, so your applications go to companies already experienced with supporting work visa candidates.
Align your start date with TN approval before resigning
Canadians get TN status issued same-day at a land port or airport, but USCIS premium processing for a change of status takes about 15 business days. Don't give notice at your current employer until you have written confirmation of your TN approval or I-797 receipt.
Quantitative Analyst TN Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Quantitative Analyst role actually qualify for TN visa status?
Yes, but the classification depends on how the role is framed. TN visa categories don't include a standalone 'quantitative analyst' designation, so employers must classify your position under economist, mathematician, or statistician, depending on your primary duties. A role focused on pricing models or statistical arbitrage maps cleanly to mathematician or statistician. A role centered on economic forecasting or market research fits economist. Your support letter needs to make that connection explicit, citing USMCA Appendix 1603.D.1.
How does TN visa sponsorship for quant roles compare to H-1B?
TN is faster and more predictable for Canadian and Mexican quants. There's no annual lottery, no cap for Canadians, and no multi-month wait for a start date slot. H-1B visa registration opens once per year in March, and selection is random regardless of your qualifications. With TN, a Canadian can receive status at the border on the same day their employer files the support letter. For quant roles at banks, hedge funds, and tech firms, TN is almost always the faster route if you hold Canadian or Mexican citizenship.
What documentation does my employer need to prepare for my TN filing?
Your employer's support letter is the core document and must include your job title, a description of duties that maps to an eligible USMCA category, your degree and field of study, your citizenship, your anticipated start date, and confirmation the position is not permanent. You'll also need your degree certificates and transcripts. Canadians present these documents at the port of entry; Mexican nationals submit them as part of the DS-160 consular application package.
Where can I find Quantitative Analyst jobs with TN visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for Canadian and Mexican professionals searching for roles that may qualify for TN status. You can filter by visa type and job category to surface quant roles at employers with recent visa filings, which significantly narrows your list to companies already experienced with work visa sponsorship and unlikely to withdraw an offer over immigration paperwork complexity.
Can I switch employers after starting a Quantitative Analyst role on TN status?
Yes, but TN status is employer-specific. If you accept a new quant role, your new employer must file a fresh TN petition or you must obtain new TN status at a port of entry before starting work. You can't transfer your existing TN approval to the new employer the way some other visa categories allow portability. Canadians often handle this by driving to a land border for same-day re-entry with the new employer's support letter.
