ETF Pricing Specialist

Sydney

Optiver is accelerating its Global Cash ambition, expanding our footprint across cash equities and ETFs worldwide. As part of this growth, we are looking for an ETF Pricing Specialist to play a critical role in scaling and strengthening our ETF pricing infrastructure. It’s an opportunity to sit at the intersection of trading, technology, and market structure, directly influencing the robustness, scalability, and precision of our ETF platform across global markets.

Why This Role Matters:

As Optiver expands its Global Cash business, ETF pricing quality becomes a strategic differentiator. In this role, you’ll help shape the infrastructure that enables traders to compete with confidence and precision. If you’re excited by markets, systems, and the challenge of building something that scales globally, we’d love to hear from you.

What you’ll do:

  • Analysis and processing of ETF PCF and related data pipelines.
  • Day to day validations of ETF PCFs and related data products, handling edge cases around corporate actions or data quality/availability.
  • Work closely with trading and development teams, building systems to improve data quality and process automation

 

Who you are:

 

  • 2+ years of experience working with ETF and related financial datasets
  • Comfortable working with data; experience with Python or similar languages is beneficial
  • Preference for experience processing PCFs or corporate action datasets
  • Clear communicator who works well in highly collaborative, cross-functional teams
  • Diligent, with strong attention to detail

 

What you’ll get:

You’ll join a culture of collaboration and excellence, where you’ll be surrounded by curious thinkers and problem solvers. Driven by a passion for continuous improvement, you’ll thrive in a supportive, high-performing environment alongside talented colleagues, working collectively to tackle some of the most complex problems in the financial markets.

In return for your expertise, you will have access to a range of Optiver perks, including:

  • A performance-based bonus structure unmatched anywhere in the industry. We combine our profits across desks, teams, and offices into a global profit pool, fostering a truly collaborative environment.
  • The chance to work alongside diverse and intelligent peers in a rewarding environment.
  • Training, mentorship and personal development opportunities.
  • Daily breakfast, lunch and an in-house barista.
  • Gym membership plus weekly in-house chair massages.
  • Regular social events, including a company trip every two years.
  • Guided relocation, a competitive relocation package and visa sponsorship where necessary.

Diversity statement

Optiver is committed to diversity and inclusion. We encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds, and welcome requests for reasonable adjustments during the process.
