TEAM AND ROLE:
We’re seeking a Software Engineering Manager to lead our Post-Trade Engineering function—the critical infrastructure that powers financial integrations, trade settlements, and downstream data flows across our business.
This role demands a hands-on, systems-focused leader who excels at the nexus of technology, people, and business impact. You’ll architect how we scale our core financial infrastructure, ensuring reliability, performance, and trust as we grow.
If you’re energized by building exceptional teams, distilling complex systems into elegant solutions, and driving transformation through clear architectural vision, you’ll find meaningful impact here.

Key Responsibilities
- Lead with vision: Build and scale multiple engineering teams across post-trade, settlements, and financial integration systems.
- Own technical strategy: Define and execute the strategy for software development, architecture, and delivery.
- Develop talent: Hire, mentor, and grow high-performing engineering teams while fostering a culture of accountability and improvement.
- Drive technical excellence: Uphold rigorous engineering standards, oversee architecture decisions, and ensure system performance and reliability.
- Collaborate cross-functionally: Partner with product and operations leaders to align business priorities with scalable engineering solutions.
- Translate between tech and business: Communicate complex technical ideas clearly to non-technical stakeholders and vice versa.
Build and Define the Future
