Bank custody analyst bridging finance and technology with process automation and risk-focused operations.
What I'm looking for
I’m a detail-oriented Analyst in Bank Custody Solutions at BNY, where I manage post-trade settlement, reconciliation, and risk mitigation for institutional clients. I developed and implemented automation solutions that streamlined manual workflows, reduced processing time, and improved operational accuracy across custody operations.
I monitor and resolve settlement exceptions, trade breaks, and discrepancies to mitigate operational risk and improve settlement efficiency. I also perform reconciliation of securities and cash positions while ensuring compliance with regulatory and internal control requirements.
Before BNY, I worked at Schbang, partnering closely with the founder to drive strategic growth through AI-driven solutions and brand strategy. As a Retention Marketing Associate, I led brand strategy and campaign execution, achieving 3x ROAS, and developed AiSensy, an AI-powered WhatsApp automation platform that improved client response times by 30%.
I’m currently pursuing the CFA Program to bridge finance and technology, strengthening my ability to translate operational insights into better decision-making. I bring a strong mix of stakeholder management, conflict resolution, and process improvement—plus hands-on technical exposure through projects built with the MERN stack, Docker, and REST APIs, and leadership experience as a Coding Lead in a fintech club.
