Technical and Delivery Lead specializing in global markets, post-trade, and regulatory platforms.
What I'm looking for
I am a Technical & Delivery Lead with 18+ years of experience delivering large-scale Global Markets, post-trade, and regulatory technology programs for global investment banking. I have led complex transformations, regulatory rewrites, and high-risk migrations on enterprise trading and post-trade platforms with strong governance and audit compliance.
As the SME for QzTask, I owned end-to-end delivery for multi-tenant workflow and task-orchestration platforms used across Confirmations, Client Assets, Post-Settlement, and Regulatory Reporting teams. I have driven cross-border delivery across US, UK, and APAC, coordinating engineering, compliance, operations, and risk teams to deliver zero-defect releases and maintain production stability.
My achievements include delivering significant cost savings through platform decommissioning and legacy remediation, reducing hundreds of L2 support hours via automation and monitoring, and leading regulatory notification and rewrite programs (EMIR, CFTC, Canada) with zero production disruption. I prioritize resiliency, compliance, and measurable operational improvements.
