- Generate timely, well-argued investment theses and actionable trade ideas, clearly articulating risk/reward and key catalysts.
- Build and maintain relationships with company management teams, sell-side analysts, and industry contacts to enhance information edge.

- Strong financial modeling, valuation, and analytical skills, with a track record of generating differentiated, high-conviction investment ideas.
- Deep understanding of the drivers specific to each coverage area: commodity price dynamics and energy markets, mega-cap tech competitive positioning and AI-driven growth narratives, and semiconductor cycle/supply chain dynamics.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to distill complex analysis into clear, actionable investment views.
- Proven ability to work under pressure in a fast-paced trading environment, with strong attention to detail and intellectual curiosity.
