- Support compliance with regulatory risk management guidelines (e.g., MAS Technology and Operational Risk requirements).
Requirements:
- Degree or Diploma in Finance, Financial Engineering, Economics, Statistics, Computer Science, or a related discipline.
- Minimum 2 to 5 years of direct experience in risk operations, trade surveillance, middle office, or market risk within an exchange (crypto, FX, equities, or futures), market maker, or proprietary trading firm.
- Strong understanding of exchange mechanics, order types, matching engines, perpetual contracts, and margin/liquidation systems.
- Proficiency in querying and analyzing trading telemetry using SQL, Python, or data visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, PowerBI).
- High calm-under-pressure capability to make sound risk decisions during fast-moving market swings.
- Willingness to support rotational on-call coverage or shift schedules in line with a 24/7 global trading ecosystem.
