The posting

BUILD MARKETS. SHAPE ECONOMIES.

At SGX Group, we create markets. We turn ideas into products and expand access to new opportunities. We are building the future of the exchange in-house: from architecture and platforms to the critical systems that power markets. The biggest decisions are still open to people who join us now.

The opportunity

The SVP/Executive Director, Software Engineering is a seasoned technology leader responsible for shaping SGX’s enterprise software engineering vision, platform strategy, and technical operating model. This role holds broad accountability for engineering excellence across architecture, platform resilience, governance, and leadership capability, ensuring SGX’s technology estate remains secure, scalable, and future-ready. Working across multiple teams and domains, the role translates strategic priorities into modern engineering practices, drives critical technology decisions, raises technical standards, and enables senior engineering leaders to deliver high-performing platforms that strengthen SGX’s long-term competitiveness, innovation, and operational resilience.

This role offers the opportunity to shape the future of software engineering at SGX by influencing enterprise architecture, platform strategy, and the engineering practices that underpin critical market infrastructure. It is suited for a leader who is motivated by building long-term capability, modernising engineering at scale, and leaving a lasting impact on how technology enables business growth, resilience, and innovation.

Beyond immediate leadership accountability, the role provides a compelling career path into broader enterprise technology leadership, with opportunities to deepen influence across strategy, engineering transformation, architecture governance, and organisational capability building. It is an ideal platform for a senior leader seeking to expand enterprise impact, develop the next generation of engineering leadership, and play a defining role in SGX’s technology evolution.

The Software Engineering team

Software Engineering builds, runs and evolves the applications and platforms behind SGX Group's business and market infrastructure.

The team works closely with product, architecture, platform, security and delivery colleagues to turn business priorities into secure, resilient and scalable services. Its remit spans the full engineering lifecycle, from technical design and delivery through to production ownership and continuous improvement.

Our next phase is about strengthening engineering ownership, modernising platforms and practices and building consistency across teams without flattening the different needs of each business domain.

What you will do

  • Software Development: Define the enterprise engineering vision and drive transformation of the software delivery process across SGX Tech.
  • Software Design: Shape enterprise-wide software architecture strategy and technology evolution.
  • Secure Software Development: Define Tech org-wide application security and engineering risk strategy.
  • Testing & Quality Engineering: Drive Tech org-wide quality transformation and delivery assurance strategy.
  • System Integration: Define Tech org-wide integration and interoperability strategy.
  • SDLC & Delivery Excellence: Drive Tech org-wide operational resilience and service reliability direction.
  • Observability & Production Support: Define organisational service ownership and operational excellence strategy.
  • Automation & Productivity: Lead organisational productivity strategy and investment priorities, driving productivity transformation through automation and AI.
  • Leadership & Mentoring: Define engineering culture, workforce strategy and long-term capability development.
  • Agentic AI Engineering: Reimagine software delivery around AI-native operating models and ecosystem capabilities.
  • Act as a senior technology leader and trusted partner to business and technology stakeholders, influencing strategic decisions and positioning engineering as a driver of resilience, innovation, and competitive advantage.

What we are looking for

  • Experience: Extensive experience in senior software engineering, platform engineering or technology leadership roles, with accountability for multiple engineering teams, senior leaders or enterprise platforms in complex, high-availability environments.
  • Track record: Strong track record of defining enterprise engineering direction and translating strategy into scalable operating models, governance frameworks and long-term platform evolution.
  • Technical stack: Deep expertise in modern distributed systems including microservices, service mesh and observability platforms, with strong cloud platform knowledge across AWS EKS, Azure AKS and GCP GKE, and advanced knowledge of Site Reliability Engineering practices such as incident management, chaos engineering and capacity planning.
  • Standards & environment: Track record of improving operational resilience and service maturity across mission-critical, regulated enterprise platforms.
  • Communication & leadership: Proven ability to lead leaders and scale engineering organisations through mentoring, upskilling strategies and performance frameworks, with strong executive presence and the ability to influence major technology decisions and align engineering outcomes with enterprise priorities.
  • Education & certifications: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information and Communications Technology, or a related discipline; postgraduate qualifications are advantageous.
  • Domain Knowledge: Exposure to financial market infrastructure, including securities and derivatives trading, clearing, settlement, market operations, or exchange-related systems.

Why this role matters

  • You will work on technology that underpins critical market infrastructure, where engineering decisions have direct consequences for the business, its customers and the markets it serves. Not many engineering roles carry that weight.
  • The mandate is real. You will shape how platforms are engineered, owned and evolved, and what software engineering becomes at SGX Group. The work is demanding and the organisation is still changing, which is exactly where the opportunity sits. There are not many chances in a career to build something that outlasts you.
