- Run daily reconciliation and control checks to catch missing, unmatched, or incorrectly booked trades
- If you have an automation or scripting background, there's room to help define specs and propose enhancements to the validation process (Python a plus, not required)
What We’re Looking For:- 5-10 years of experience with deep, hands-on knowledge of equity derivatives, specifically complex/exotic option structures, not vanilla or delta-one products
