Join Us
Become part of Morocco’s first open financial observability initiative. Whatever your background, there is a place for you here.
AtlasVanguard welcomes collaborators from finance, quantitative research, software, data, policy, academia, and communication disciplines. You do not need to know everything on day one. AtlasVanguard is a learning environment as much as a production one.
Who we are looking for
Finance & market professionals
Traders, risk managers, analysts, portfolio strategists, and market specialists who understand how observability supports oversight and decision-making.
Quantitative researchers
Statisticians, econometricians, and financial engineers who can help turn data into defensible analysis.
Software & data engineers
People who build data pipelines, infrastructure, automation, and dependable operational tooling.
Regulators & policy analysts
Professionals who understand supervisory needs, market integrity, and the value of traceable public documentation.
Academics & students
Researchers, PhD candidates, and advanced Master’s students looking for a structured, real-world environment.
Communicators & designers
People who improve visualisation, technical writing, reporting, and how findings are understood by wider audiences.
Why join?
Work on real infrastructure
Contribute to a live observability pipeline that monitors Moroccan derivatives and market structure.
Cross-domain collaboration
Work alongside people from finance, engineering, research, and supervision, and learn from each other.
Build your public record
Public RFCs, reports, and code commits are attributable artifacts you can reference in your portfolio or institutional work.
How the intake works
01
Apply
Fill out the membership form and tell us about your background, interests, and the kinds of work you would like to support.
02
Review
The Steering Committee reviews applications for mission alignment, clarity, and where support will be most useful.
03
Onboard
Accepted members receive a Slack invitation and an initial guide or buddy. Your first weeks are about understanding the structure, meeting your SIG, and exploring ongoing work.
04
Integrate
Contribute at your own pace. You can observe, ask questions, and gradually take on tasks without pressure to produce immediately.
New members are accompanied throughout the onboarding period.
You will not be left to figure things out alone.
The collaboration environment
Slack is used for day-to-day coordination, operational communication, and early research exchange. It is not the system of record. Permanent decisions, RFCs, charters, and other durable artifacts live in the public GitHub governance repository.
The channel structure is simple and traceable: #announcements for read-only governance updates, #general for coordination, and dedicated channels for each SIG. This keeps communication transparent and protects everyone’s work by separating discussion from decision.
Governance and Slack rules are based on the official communication guidance in the public governance repository.
