  • Required Experience & Skills

  • Strong understanding of wealth client operations, investment accounts, positions, funding flows, and deposit account servicing.
  • Familiarity with U.S. cash sweep structures, FDIC insurance strategies, cash allocation rules, and brokerage-bank integration models.

  • Technical Leadership

  • 14+ years engineering experience with 3+ in lead.
  • Ability to drive solution design from scratch (architecture, modeling, interfaces, data contracts).
  • Demonstrated success building prototypes and early-stage products in large organizations.

  • Technology Skills

  • Strong hands-on programming in Java or Python, with experience in modern microservices architecture.
  • Experience building API-driven and event-driven distributed systems.
  • Understanding Angular UI integration is beneficial.
  • Experience integrating with:
