MLE to finance. What roles are possible?

My background: I’m working on creating ML models in a product team at FB, I have 1yoe, joined here as a new grad. I have a BSc from a top school in CS and Maths.

I’m starting to think more and more that I want to move towards finance. Please tell me if my reasons don’t make sense:

1. I’ve been reading and playing around with algo trading. I love the problem space.

2. I like what I’m doing now, but having my models generate money directly sounds more exciting and motivating than having them increase user interaction.

3. I think I’d like the finance culture more. Again, I’m quite happy where I am, but I feel like I sometimes want a more competitive, high performing, slightly cuthroat environment where I’d be pushed towards my very limits and be rewarded for it. I usually thrive under pressure and not so much when everyone around is chill.

4. Much higher ceiling for TC.

Based on the above, what roles would you recommend and what would it take for me to transition there? I’m open to doing a Masters in maths/statistics, but I don’t think I’d be happy doing a PhD as I find academia to be slightly slow paced and boring. Is what I’m looking for even possible?
