FULL-TIME | NYC (IN-PERSON)About Moment
Moment is building the first operating system for fixed income, the largest financial market in the world valued at $150T+ globally. We work with the largest financial institutions to bring all of their fixed income operations into a single platform. Founded by former quants at Citadel Securities and Jane Street, Moment serves global financial institutions with over $5T+ in assets after publicly launching in 2024.
 
The fixed income market is undergoing rapid transformation:
  • Electronic trading has skyrocketed, with corporate bond electronic volumes growing 10x over the last decade
  • Rising rates - from near zero to roughly 5% - have sparked a surge in demand
  • Financial institutions are increasingly partnering with fintechs to modernize legacy infrastructure
  • AI advances are enabling workflow automation that was once thought impossible
Despite the market’s scale, most workflows remain incredibly manual: traders juggle multiple screens, portfolio managers exchange sprawling spreadsheets, and critical coordination still happens by phone or chat. Moment is unlocking a new automation paradigm for the industry by unifying these workflows into one system.
 
We're backed by world class investors including Index, A16Z, and Lightspeed, and have raised $56M in funding. We recently raised a $36M Series B by Index. You can read Bloomberg's coverage of it here and the memo Index wrote on why they invested.
The Role

We prioritize risk controls to ensure the seamless execution of our mission. We believe that playing by the rules is essential to our success. We are looking for a new teammate to be a founding member of our risk team. This is an exciting opportunity to focus substantively on the development and application of risk disciplines and acquire full exposure to the fixed income market as we make it easy to understand and accessible to retail customers. 

In this role, you will:

  • Serving as the chief compliance officer of Moment Advisors.
  • Working closely with Moment Advisors’ management to advise on investment advisory regulatory matters.  
  • Working closely with the engineering teams to build and maintain the Portfolio Management System, and in particular:
  • Developing an investment compliance framework:
  • Designing, building, and maintaining a framework of controls to monitor compliance risks, including:
  • Representing Moment in discussions with counterparties and regulators about our framework of risk controls.

What We’re Looking For:

  • 5+ years experience in securities clearing and settlement processes
  • Deep understanding of Investment Advisors Compliance statutory and regulatory requirements
  • Familiarity with trading processes (fixed income ++)
  • A high standard, for yourself and others, when working in a trading technology environment
  • Effective communication skills — ask questions, assume good intentions, default to transparency, rigor and empathy that help you thrive in a collaborative and high-performance environment.
Compensation & Benefits

For this role, the salary range is $175,000 to $225,000 + equity. Actual compensation will vary based on skills, experience, and interview performance. 

In addition to a competitive salary and equity package, we provide every employee with:

  • Grow into the leader you aspire to be. At a fast-growing company in an expanding industry, you can enjoy career growth.
  • Comprehensive wellness package, providing top-notch health, dental, and vision coverage with 100% company reimbursement for most plans.
  • Competitive compensation, top-notch gym stipends ($150), and equity into the company.
  • Flexible PTO policy that people actually use — on average, people take three weeks off per year.
  • 401k with employer match (4%) to help you save for your future.
  • Paid lunches in the office, every day through Uber Eats and a free UberOne membership ($25/meal).
