Quant Developer

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.

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.

About LawnStarter

LawnStarter is the nation's leading on-demand marketplace for lawn care and outdoor services, spanning three brands: LawnStarter, Lawn Love, and Home Gnome. We've cleared $750M in bookings and turned a profit three years running. Founded in Austin in 2013, we're a team of about 180 that scales past 500 employees during peak season. The marketplace itself is easy to describe and hard to run well: a customer requests a recurring service, we price the job and match it to an eligible Pro, the Pro claims and completes the work, and we manage the ongoing relationship for the consumer across the maintenance services they need fulfilled.

We're entering the most ambitious stretch in the company's history as we build new verticals, new software products, and the groundwork to become a multi-billion-dollar company.

One of our company values is AI or Extinction: every task, AI-first. No exceptions, no excuses. Top 1% or we're already a fossil. This role is hired against that bar.
