Lead Financial Risk Engineer

As Squad Lead you are accountable for both functional quality and delivery:

• Own delivery of business initiatives:

  • Collaborate with Product to define scope acceptance criteria and timelines for ALM and regulatory features

  • Break down initiatives into epics stories and technical tasks for the developers in your squad

  • Actively manage priorities dependencies and risks; rescope or phase work when needed to meet deadlines

• Run effective team processes:

  • Lead planning refinement standups reviews and retros

  • Ensure work is visible (board hygiene) WIP is controlled and blockers are surfaced early

  • Maintain a healthy balance between feature delivery technical debt reduction and model robustness

• Uphold engineering excellence:

  • Review key designs and code for calculation paths

  • Set standards for test coverage (unit scenario regression) and nonfunctional testing (performance resilience)

  • Drive adoption of observability practices (metrics traces logs) for your services

• Coach and grow the team:

  • Mentor developers on both the domain (ALM liquidity regulatory metrics) and engineering (Java distributed systems)

  • Create a constructive feedback culture and encourage shared ownership of calculations and code

How you lead

• You care first and foremost that the numbers are right and explainable and you insist on code that reflects that

• You are comfortable owning a roadmap: you can say no not now or this is the minimal viable slice when needed

• You translate complex ALM and regulatory requirements into a sequence of concrete deliverable increments for your squad

• You build a culture where engineers understand:

  • The business impact of their calculations (ALCO decisions regulatory headroom capital efficiency)

  • The engineering standards required to run those calculations reliably at scale

• Proven experience working with ALM / Treasury / Risk calculation engines in a bank or vendor including:

  • IRRBB: Delta NII Delta EVE gap/duration analysis interest rate shock frameworks

  • Liquidity risk: cash-flow engines LCR and NSFR calculations

  • Behavioural modelling: prepayment decay roll-overs

• Strong understanding of banking products and their risk/liquidity profiles:

  • Retail/wholesale deposits term deposits loans/mortgages bonds off-balance sheet items and common hedging derivatives

• Ability to discuss and challenge ALM / regulatory assumptions with CRO Treasury and Risk stakeholders

Technical / Engineering

• Strong software engineering background in Java (Java 11 preferred):

  • Proven experience designing and implementing performance-sensitive calculation logic

  • Solid grip on collections concurrency and data processing patterns

• Experience building calculation or analytics services in:

  • Batch frameworks grids/distributed compute or microservice architectures

• Competent with relational databases (MS SQL Server Oracle AzureSQL):

  • Understanding schemas for positions cash flows scenarios and results

  • Comfortable with SQL for efficient aggregations and reconciliation

• Good understanding of:

  • RESTful APIs and data contracts (JSON OpenAPI) for integration (e.g. enrichment APIs)

  • Containerized environments (Docker Kubernetes) and how services are deployed and scaled

Leadership & Delivery

• Prior experience as a Tech Lead / Squad Lead / Team Lead:

  • Leading several developers on complex back-end heavy projects

  • Taking end-to-end responsibility for delivering features to agreed timelines

• Demonstrated ability to:

  • Translate business/functional requirements into technical plans

  • Make trade-offs visible and communicate them clearly to product and stakeholders

  • Keep the team focused and productive in a complex domain with changing regulatory context

• Experience with:

  • Apache Ignite or similar distributed in-memory data grids / caches

  • WebSocket-based streaming of results and/or high-volume export interfaces

  • OLAP / multidimensional analytics tools (e.g. ActiveViam Atoti or equivalent)

• Exposure to:

  • Regulatory frameworks (Basel III/3.1 CRR EBA IRRBB and liquidity guidelines BCBS 239)

  • Model risk governance: model documentation validation cycles challenger models

• Familiarity with:

  • Observability tooling (OpenTelemetry Prometheus/Grafana ELK)

  • CI/CD for Java/Kubernetes-based systems Helm/Compose-based deployments
