Backed by experienced operators and growing quickly, we are building the infrastructure to scale a high-performance, data-driven business.\nOur strategies are identified by a small research team and then executed by an operations floor working through structured playbooks. The edge is real, but capturing it depends entirely on execution being accurate, fast and consistent. That is where this role sits.\nThe Role\nYou run the execution floor day to day so our Head of Quant can go back to research.\nToday he is doing both, which means the research half is not happening and the floor half is not being managed as well as it should be. You take the floor: the people, the training, the process, the error rates and the throughput. He takes back the work only he can do.\nThe team you will manage is largely early in their careers, works to detailed playbooks, and is measured on output and accuracy. Output per person currently varies by a factor of several between the best and the weakest, which tells you most of what you need to know about where the opportunity is.\nYou do not need to be a mathematician. You need to understand the workflow completely, care intensely about error rates, and be able to turn a clunky manual process into a written specification an engineer can build.\nWhat You'll Do\nRaise output per person. Through training, better process, clearer standards and daily oversight. The spread between your best and weakest operator is the number you are attacking.\nDrive error rates down and keep them down. When someone makes a mistake, your first question is what about the system allowed it. Your second is what changes so it cannot happen again.\nOwn training and onboarding for the floor. Ramp time is currently measured in months. You will systematise it, document it, and eventually delegate it.\nBe the bridge to engineering. You will spend real time watching people work, spotting what should not be manual, and writing prioritized requirements that get built.\nKeep the hopper full. Nobody on the floor should be idle waiting on equipment, a handoff or an answer. The logistics of that are yours.\nTake the escalations. Ambiguous situations, unusual cases and anything the playbook does not cover come to you first.\nRequirements\nYou have managed a high-volume execution, production or fulfillment floor where accuracy mattered as much as speed\nYou think in checklists, standard operating procedures and error rates. You believe a mistake is a failure of the system first and the person second\nYou are highly literate with spreadsheets and comfortable with basic data querying. You spot patterns and anomalies that individuals working alone would not\nYou write clear technical requirements. You can describe a broken workflow precisely enough that someone can build the fix\nYou are uncompromising on standards and genuinely good with early-career people. Both, not one\nYou are rigid about hitting targets and flexible about how, and you will operationalize a new playbook rather than resisting it\nYou handle sensitive data and money-adjacent workflows with discretion\nBonus Points For\nOperations management at a trading firm, betting operation, payments company or similar\nTechnical project or program management, or technical implementation leadership\nManaging distributed field teams across multiple states or provinces\nA competitive background in strategy games, poker, esports or trading\nExperience introducing measurement to a team that has never been measured\nBenefits\nCompetitive base plus performance bonuses tied to floor output and accuracy\nDirect access to the founder and the Head of Quant, with no layers in between\nOwn a function outright in a company where this function is the profit center\nReal growth path as the floor expands into new regions","description_format":"text","description_chars":3916,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Angel Networks & Startup Accelerators","Hedge Funds & Alternative Investments"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-13T12:26:32Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":11,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.38,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":67,"expected_fill_days":24,"reasons":["conf:6","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-11-03T05:54:40Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/viewlineventures-quantitative-team-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/viewlineventures-quantitative-team-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-03T08:56:20Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":12772,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-04T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":690021},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=690021"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fviewlineventures-quantitative-team-manager"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fviewlineventures-quantitative-team-manager"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fviewlineventures-quantitative-team-manager"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/viewlineventures-quantitative-team-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fviewlineventures-quantitative-team-manager"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":864339}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"viewlineventures.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":864339},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
