About the team + role

We are building an elite team, applying frontier technologies to the world’s biggest financial problems. We’re looking for bold thinkers. Sharp problem-solvers. Builders who are wired to make an impact. Robinhood isn’t a place for complacency, it’s where ambitious people do the best work of their careers. We’re a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do. Expectations are high, and so are the rewards.

The Trading Operations team is responsible for ensuring accurate, timely, and compliant trade execution across all supported asset classes while protecting customers and the firm. The team partners closely with Engineering, Compliance, Customer Experience, and external market centres to maintain system stability and trading integrity during all market sessions.

Robinhood has now introduced 24/7 trading and this hire will help support this new function.

As a Trading Specialist, you will monitor live trading activity across overnight, extended hours, and regular market sessions while supporting the health of Robinhood’s trading infrastructure. You’ll investigate and resolve trading issues, coordinate responses to system or venue disruptions, and communicate clearly with internal teams and external partners. This role offers hands‑on exposure to trading operations, risk management, and customer‑impacting decisions, with meaningful opportunities for learning and career growth!

This role is remote but will be tied to a local Robinhood office in New York, NY, Lake Mary, FL, Chicago, IL, or Denver, CO. At Robinhood, we believe in the power of in‑person work to accelerate progress, spark innovation, and strengthen community. Our office experience is intentional, energizing, and designed to fully support high‑performing teams.
