Strong Experience in banking/financial services domain (BFSI) is a must.

• API & Integration Knowledge: Understanding of RESTful APIs, event-driven architecture, and microservices. Ability to define API contracts, payload structures, and error handling requirements. Familiarity with message queues (Kafka, MQ) for real-time trade/event processing.
• ETL & Data Migration: Experience with ETL tools (Informatica, Talend, or similar). Knowledge of data quality frameworks, lineage, and governance.

Run backlog grooming, sprint planning, and cross-team dependency management; drive PI Planning where applicable.

• Process Design & Controls: Define TO-BE processes for trade intake, netting, cut-offs, settlement/NAV dependencies, reconciliation, and break management. Establish operational controls (SLAs, exception workflows, audit trails, data lineage, retention). Partner with Compliance/Risk to embed regulatory requirements (e.g., cost basis, reporting, AML/KYC insights, 22c-2 analytics).
• Stakeholder & Change Leadership: Align broker-dealer operations, fund accounting, technology, data engineering, and compliance on goals and release plans. Conduct workshops/demos; publish release notes and operational runbooks; manage change impacts and training.
