WHO WE ARE

PEAK6 Capital Management is a proprietary options trading firm that has been defining the industry for more than 25 years. While many firms have come and gone, PEAK6 Capital Management has consistently delivered liquidity to the options market. We thrive due to our firm’s special blend of financial acumen, ability to manage risk, and cutting-edge technology.

  • Opportunity to receive feedback from seasoned traders on assumptions, mental models, and frameworks
  • Networking opportunities with PEAK6 founders, leaders, traders, and other team members
  • Fully funded including flights and housing
  • Consideration for future full-time employment at PEAK6 Capital Management

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
