Entry Level

Who Are We 
Derivative Path empowers institutions across the capital markets with innovative, AI-driven technology and expert advisory solutions. Our award-winning cloud platform supports banks, credit unions, private equity firms, hedge funds, asset managers, and insurance companies in managing interest rate, FX, and commodity risks, optimizing hedging strategies, and streamlining cross-border payments.

Through strategic partnerships with Goldman Sachs, Wells Fargo, FNBO, Q2, and Jack Henry, we provide best-in-class capabilities to help clients achieve their financial objectives in an ever-evolving market.  
  
With a team of seasoned professionals comprised of decades of industry experience, Derivative Path offers a flexible, hybrid work environment to its 125+ employees with the ability to work remotely and from one of four offices in San Francisco, New York, Chicago, and Manila. The Company is dedicated to building a diverse environment and has an unwavering commitment to creating a sense of belonging for all employees. 

 

The Opportunity  
We are looking for an ambitious and motivated Analyst to join our Interest Rate Derivatives Sales team in our New York office. Reporting to the Managing Director of Bank Solutions, this role requires that employees will be available to work in an office with the potential for occasional hybrid or remote work.  

Our team helps regional and community banks offer interest rate hedging solutions to their commercial borrowers. We also help banks use interest rate derivatives to manage interest rate risk on their own balance sheet. We are effectively the interest rate sales and trading team for over 250 banks across the U.S.  

This is a client-facing role that involves daily interaction with bank executives and commercial banking lenders, as well as the trading desks of large money-center swap dealers. You will support the daily activities of senior derivatives sales team members, structure and execute derivatives transactions, and assist with ad hoc projects. Success in the role requires a foundational knowledge of financial markets with strong interpersonal skills. Experience with banking and financial markets is ideal, but we do not expect candidates to have a deep understanding of derivatives. Training and support will be provided as needed.  

This is a great opportunity to build a career in financial markets at a smaller organization where your work will have a direct impact on clients and the success of the firm.

  • Effective written and verbal communication skills  
  • Superior quantitative skills and attention to detail  
  • Interest in financial markets/banking  
  • Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced environment  
  • Desire to expand your skill-set and contribute in many ways to a fast-growing fintech firm
