Ability to work independently and ask the right questions on how an existing downstream system should be retrieving data outbound from Aladdin and the interfaces we are building.

Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to understand the architecture and the strategy and keep that in mind as they perform their analysis.
Excellent time management with ability to hold himself or herself accountable to timelines and required velocity.
Be able to self-resolve roadblocks without much guidance from FT teams – we realize they will need some guidance and introductions to the system and business owners or end users.

Should have a good understanding of common data challenges and pitfalls in Aladdin implementations and is able to come up with workaround solutions/suggestions, working together with the rest of the team.
The candidate will be working closely in a team but must have the skills to hold their own.
Should get to know the architecture, data and the processes being implemented enough to point out risks and future possible challenges.
Should be able to perform the due diligence to resolve blockers himself before escalating to the team leads for resolution.
Have good gut instincts to understand when it’s the right time to ask questions or escalate for help – keeping the right balance of being self-sufficient with asking for help when to ensure minimal delays.
