• Drive AI and automation initiatives to improve alert quality, reduce false positives, and enable intelligent risk detection and monitoring.
• Continuously optimize monitoring coverage, data quality, and operational processes through data analysis, system enhancements, and best practices.

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of experience in Risk Management, Trading Operations, Risk Monitoring, Trading Technology, or Operational Risk within a financial services or fintech environment.
• Proven experience building or leading enterprise-wide monitoring frameworks, risk control mechanisms, or operational monitoring platforms.
• Strong systems thinking with the ability to connect business processes, technology, and data into scalable monitoring solutions.
• Demonstrated experience driving cross-functional projects involving Risk, Trading, Engineering, and Operations teams.
• Strong analytical mindset with experience leveraging SQL, BI tools, automation, AI, or data analytics to improve monitoring capabilities.

What We Offer

• Build and own the next generation of enterprise risk monitoring capabilities.
• Shape monitoring standards and governance across multiple business functions.
• Drive the adoption of AI and automation in risk management.
• Work with cross-functional leaders to enhance operational resilience and business performance.
• Make a direct impact on the company's risk strategy and long-term operational excellence.
