  • Understand our linear, monte-carlo, and full repricing approaches to risk.
  • Share industry knowledge and competitor updates internally
  • Collaborate with clients, account consultants, risk specialists, risk researchers, quantitative developers, software engineers, and product developers to better understand local business requirements, improve our product, and take market share from our competitors.

What We're Looking For:

  • 8 years industry experiences, with a minimum of 5 years experience working in an investment market risk role.
  • Strong knowledge of technology within risk workflows and enterprise operations.
  • Strong knowledge of multi-asset class risk systems and the competitive environment.
  • Bachelor's Degree, ideally in Finance, Economics, or Math related field.
  • Strong verbal communication skills, presentation skills, and teamwork skills.
  • Agile, action-oriented, quick thinker: deliver results fast by making simplifying assumptions and take time to dive deeper if our business priorities allow and the problem demands.

Any of the following will be considered an advantage:

  • Familiarity or comfort using API/Programming environments, such as Python.
  • Experience in the space of fixed income, derivative, and real assets modeling.
  • Knowledge of markets and principles of quantitative modeling in finance.

What's In It for You:
