Manage and troubleshoot broker mapping and static data setup within Aladdin to support accurate trade routing and settlement.
Act as the primary liaison with BlackRock support and client service teams to log, track, and drive resolution of platform issues, enhancement requests, and release-related queries.
Write and optimize SQL queries to investigate data issues, support root-cause analysis, and produce ad hoc reports for trading and operations stakeholders.
Partner directly with front office users (portfolio managers, traders, and trading assistants) to understand issues, gather requirements, and provide timely, clear resolutions.
Support incident, problem, and change management processes, including documentation of root cause analysis and resolution steps.
Participate in Aladdin release testing, upgrades, and regression testing cycles, validating front office and trading functionality.
Contribute to process improvement and automation initiatives to reduce recurring incidents and manual intervention.

Strong SQL skills for data investigation, troubleshooting, and query writing (Oracle/SQL Server or similar).
Practical experience reading and interpreting FIX protocol logs to troubleshoot order and execution issues.
Experience with broker mapping and static/reference data setup in a trading platform.
Solid understanding of the trading lifecycle and trading domain concepts (order management, execution, settlement).
Proven experience providing L2/L3 application support, including incident triage, root cause analysis, and escalation management.
Experience coordinating directly with BlackRock (or equivalent vendor) support teams on platform issues and releases.
Strong stakeholder management skills, with experience supporting front office users such as traders and portfolio managers.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to translate technical issues for business users.

Preferred Qualifications

Knowledge of Fixed Income and Equity products and their trading workflows within Aladdin.
Experience with portfolio construction and order management concepts.
Familiarity with ITIL-based incident, problem, and change management processes.
Exposure to scripting or automation tools (e.g., Python, shell scripting) for support tooling.
