About the Role: Reporting to the Global Head, this senior leadership position offers an exciting opportunity to shape the future of FX technology. You will define and implement groundbreaking software development strategies for key FX products, leading high-performing teams and collaborating with industry experts. This role goes beyond process management – you will create world-class solutions that shape the future of financial markets.

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Leadership Impact: Be the driving force behind a talented engineering team, guiding the development of industry-leading FX platforms and services.

  • Collaborative Environment: Join a team that thrives on partnership, collaborating with experts in architecture, product development, and sales to deliver client-focused solutions.
  • Global Influence: Contribute to an international organization recognized for its significant impact on financial markets.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead US-based teams to ensure best practices in software architecture, development, and automation.
  • Shape and execute the FX technology strategy, focusing on resilience, reliability, and major strategic initiatives.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally to create innovative products that align with business goals and exceed customer expectations.
  • Serve as the key technical authority, providing leadership and guidance across the organization.
  • Uphold a commitment to quality in every project and solution.

What You’ll Bring:

  • A degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
  • 15+ years of experience with JVM technologies, multi-threading, and cloud environments (AWS/Azure), focusing on low-latency programming techniques.
  • In-depth knowledge of the FX market, including trading norms, venues, and systems.
  • Strong leadership experience in building inclusive, high-performing teams.
  • Familiarity with Agile methodologies and tools like Git, Jira, and Confluence.
  • Passion for delivering world-class software and staying at the forefront of industry trends.
