  • Architect and deliver strategic regulatory platforms (e.g., FRTB, SA-CVA, MiFID/EMIR-driven initiatives) on time and on budget.
  • Drive DevOps automation (CI/CD, single-click deployment/release) across the platform estate.
  • Build, retain, and mentor high-performing engineering teams; own hiring, performance management, and location strategy.
  • Manage vendor relationships and in-house capability build-out for cost efficiency and risk mitigation.
  • Partner with Heads of Operations, CTO, and business stakeholders to shape technology roadmap and priorities.

  • Track record delivering regulatory or compliance-driven platforms (FRTB, SA-CVA, MiFID, EMIR, Volcker, or similar).
  • Strong stakeholder management skills across Operations, Technology, and senior business leadership.
  • Demonstrated ability to build, scale, and retain high-performing global engineering teams.

Nice to Have

  • Exposure to Big Data platforms (Hadoop, Cloudera).
  • Working knowledge of AI/ML-enabled capabilities applied to trading, risk, or operations technology.
