Alex Munn
Co-founder
Alex Munn is a life long developer, with a passion for technology, entering his first line of code on a ZX Spectrum (48k) at 6 years old, if only to prove to his older brother he could keep up. He started his career at Sun Microsystems, in a special web projects team, before moving into finance in 2007 on the eve of the global financial crisis. Whilst this was certainly a trial by fire, it gave Alex a strong appreciation of the value of technology in managing risk. Alex has held technology and leadership positions across numerous Investment Banks, before moving into the asset management space in 2018, joining Man Group as Head of Core Trading Technology. During his tenure at Man group Alex lead multiple technology teams across trading systems, data science, quant technology, machine learning and execution.
