About Raven
Raven is a proprietary crypto market-making and high-frequency trading firm. We trade spot, perpetuals, and prediction markets with dedicated low-latency infrastructure across eight major trading regions.
We hire competitive individuals and natural problem solvers with a record of ranking at something hard, whether competitive programming, games, or mathematics, who treat an unfamiliar problem as a challenge rather than an obstacle. We can teach markets; we cannot teach drive.
We build our own stack end to end, from connectivity and pricing through execution, monitoring, and research data.
THE ROLE
We are not a sportsbook. We do not price a margin and wait for retail flow. We quote into exchange-style markets where the counterparty may be sharper than we are, and we profitonly when our probabilities beat the price.This is the whole job. Every contract settles at zero or one, the market price is already a forecast, and your edge is being better calibrated, faster to react, or willing to make a market where no one else will.
What You'll Own
Event models.
Team and player state turned into a probability distribution, built from ratings, lineups, pace, venue and weather effects, and referee quirks. A stable of models rather than one grand unified theory, and you know exactly where each one stops working
Quoting and market making. Two-sided prices on discrete outcomes, with spread and size that reflect how confident the model actually is, and inventory managed across outcomes that must sum to one
News, latency, and in-play. Injuries, lineups, red cards, and delayed starts, met with state-dependent live repricing and suspension logic that withdraws quotes before adverse selection sets in
Resolution risk. What a contract actually settles on, in the rules text and not the spirit. Real PnL, not legal boilerplate
Risk and sizing. Position sizing that survives a bad week, correlation across events that look independent and are not, and exposure you understand
