  • Proven track record of implementing large-scale automation and QA governance frameworks.

  • Deep knowledge of post-trade systems and integrations (e.g., Calypso, Murex, Client, Impact, GLOSS, DTCC, SWIFT).

  • Strong expertise in test automation frameworks (Java/Python Selenium, Cypress, REST/SOAP service testing, performance tools like JMeter/LoadRunner).

  • Familiarity with DevOps and CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab, Azure DevOps).

  • Data validation skills (SQL, Excel, reconciliation tools).

  • Exceptional leadership, mentoring, and communication skills.

  • Ability to engage with Front Office, Back Office, Risk, Operations, and Regulators at senior levels.

  • Strategic mindset with hands-on problem-solving capabilities.

Preferred:

  • Advanced degree (MBA, MS in Computer Science/Engineering, or Financial Engineering).

  • Prior experience in a sell-side investment bank or hedge fund back office environment.

  • Knowledge of regulatory frameworks (Dodd-Frank, MiFID II, CFTC, EMIR).
