Key Responsibilities
- Own the architecture of the Client Trading Engine, Pricing Engine, Risk Management Engine, and Smart Hedging.
- Break complex, ambiguous systems into smaller components with clear contracts, clear scope, and independent deliverability.
- Set and drive the architectural vision for trading and hedging, and take large architectural bets through to completion.
- Build for scale – design systems that hold up as volume, venues, and currency corridors grow.
- Own the observability standard across all components, so the behaviour of the trade and risk path is legible when it matters.
- Design meaningful alerting, fallback, and recovery strategies across systems.
- Coach and mentor engineers on the team, and raise the technical bar through design reviews and feedback.
- Partner with product, risk, and the two pod EMs to connect architectural decisions to TPV, gross revenue, and net revenue outcomes.
