You will be the first trader through the door. Before a single order is executed, you will help validate the firm's trading infrastructure — OMS connectivity, platform configuration, and trading procedures — and participate in the CNBV inspection that authorizes the firm to begin operations. From Day 1, you will execute client and proprietary orders across equity, fixed income, and derivatives markets.

Support connectivity testing with BMV and BIVA trading platforms
Participate in defining the trading limits framework and pre-trade risk controls
Participate in the CNBV commencement-of-operations inspection — trading section
Conduct simulated trading sessions to validate the end-to-end order flow
Once live: execute client and proprietary orders across equity, fixed income, and derivatives markets; ensure compliance with CUCB best execution and conflicts of interest rules; coordinate with back-office on trade confirmations and settlement instructions
What makes you a great fit:
Minimum 8 years at a casa de bolsa , of which at least 5 in an active trading role
Current AMIB certification as Operador Bursátil (Series 3) — this is a hard, non-negotiable prerequisite
Hands-on experience with BMV SENTRA or BIVA trading platforms
Experience with OMS/EMS systems
Willingness to be individually registered with the CNBV and accept the personal regulatory accountability this entails
Spanish conversational level
English conversational level
Nice to Have:
Experience at more than one casa de bolsa or across multiple asset classes

Experience joining an institution during its pre-operational or start-up phase
Our ways of working:
Innovative Spirit: A commitment to creativity and groundbreaking solutions
Honest Feedback: valuing open, transparent communication
Supportive Team: a strong, collaborative community
Celebrating Achievements: recognizing our wins together
High-Tech Environment: a team full of smart and revolutionary people who date to challenge the status quo of incumbent finances
