YOUR ROLE

As a Senior Research Analyst and Portfolio Manager (m/f/d), you will bring together a passion for great investments and cutting-edge technology. From Day 1, you will be leveraging BIT Capital's resources, including expert networks, alternative datasets and proprietary research tools, to help us deliver best-in-class returns to our fund investors. Working closely alongside Ingo Lupatelli, Portfolio Manager and Director Research, you will develop original investment theses, contributing directly to buy/sell decisions in a concentrated, high-conviction portfolio and over time take on responsibility in portfolio construction, position sizing and risk management.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

  • You conduct rigorous bottom-up fundamental research on innovative, publicly traded technology companies worldwide, spanning sectors such as AI, semiconductors, fintech, health-tech, robotics and other emerging technology verticals.

  • You own end-to-end idea generation: source, develop and pitch investment theses, supported by analysis of business models, competitive dynamics, secular trends and proactively identify opportunities for alpha generation.

  • You perform financial modeling and valuation, using all available data sources to better understand and forecast company KPIs.

  • You cultivate relationships with key sector experts and management teams and participate in major conferences and events.

  • You make BIT Capital's alternative data, artificial intelligence & quantitative capabilities an integral part of your research process, and identify opportunities to improve such capabilities.

  • You support and progressively co-lead portfolio construction decisions, including position sizing, sector allocation and risk management. 

  • You will actively manage options and hedges for our portfolios.

YOUR PROFILE

  • Strong academic track record in a technical field such as Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, Mathematics, Finance or Economics. 
  • At least 3 years of professional experience researching investments in technology companies (equity research, hedge fund, private equity, venture capital, investment banking or management consulting). 
  • Deep understanding of at least one major technology sector such as software, AI, semiconductors, fintech, health-tech or robotics, at both the technical and business level.
  • Solid understanding of options and derivatives, including option pricing, Greeks and common hedging strategies, and how they can be used to enhance returns or manage risk. 
  • This role requires demonstrated excellence — outstanding academic achievements combined with exceptional impact in previous roles, and clear indicators of exceptional analytical and systems-thinking ability.

YOUR MINDSET

  • You are passionate about technology, stocks, investing, and business strategy. 
  • You are intellectually rigorous, you stress-test assumptions and seek out disconfirming evidence to make up your independent opinion. 
  • You are a team player, seeking to thrive in a collaborative, high-performance, transparent culture. 
  • You are self-driven and entrepreneurial, ready to go the extra mile to deliver the best results for our investors. 
  • You are in it for the long term and can relate to the BIT Capital Vision.

  • An experienced, international team with professional colleagues and strong experts for an inspiring network. 

  • Flat hierarchy and direct interaction with the management of BIT Capital. 

  • Assumption of responsibility from day one. 

  • Challenging, varied tasks for a steep learning curve and professional growth opportunities. 

  • A transparent, appreciative feedback culture for your personal development. 

  • Team events with a successful team that brings the digital and financial worlds together.
