At Clear Street, we are disrupting the institutional brokerage and clearing market by modernizing archaic industry segments with brand new technology. We’re changing the way institutional investors interact with the markets; offering an alternative to working with big banks. Our cloud-based API technology will empower clients to clear, settle, and finance trading activity while accessing real-time risk and position information. Our platform is built on an incredibly modern tech-stack, by pragmatic engineers focused on building intuitive and frictionless user experiences. Our tech-infused suite of customer experience-oriented prime service offerings will increase our clients’ efficiency and provide real-time insights they’ve never previously experienced.

Operations Specialist Characteristics:

  • You have 3+ years of experience working for a clearing firm or Prime Brokerage that clears for outside clients.
  • You are analytical by nature; you think beyond the immediate problem, solving for the underlying structure and identifying edge cases; you strive to understand the "why" behind how processes work.
  • You are a natural problem solver; you easily navigate unclear problems and are able to identify efficient solutions.
  • You are a communication chameleon; you easily navigate a variety of communication styles and seamlessly bridge the gap between the highly technical and non-technical.
  • You are an autonomous self-starter; you are able to maintain timelines for yourself and others and feel comfortable driving a team forward to achieve amazing results.
  • You have advanced Excel skills and strive to enhance your technical abilities by exploring SQL and Python.


We offer:

  • The opportunity to join a small and growing team of good people, where you can make a difference
  • An environment that champions collaboration and prioritizes pragmatic solutions to complex problems

  • Work that is fast paced, intellectually challenging, and most of all, profoundly rewarding
