The Role

You will lead the strategy for venue connectivity—from onboarding new execution venues to managing real-time market data integration. Working closely with external counterparties, exchanges, and brokers, you will navigate technical changes and API upgrades to guarantee uninterrupted connectivity across aggregated markets. You are as comfortable discussing API specifications and trade flows with developers as you are presenting new commercial opportunities to executive stakeholders. Your goal is simple: build fast, protect continuous market access, eliminate client friction in the algo space, and drive bottom-line growth.

Domain Expertise: Act as the subject matter expert on trading workflows and advanced algo execution strategies, providing clients with a competitive edge while meeting strict regulatory requirements. 

Agile Delivery: Champion a pragmatic "build fast, test, iterate" approach. Write strategic Epics and granular user stories with clear acceptance criteria.

Client Advocacy: Engage directly with traders, present prototypes, and track quantitative metrics to validate product-market fit.

Cross-Functional Leadership: Align Sales, Support, Marketing, and Engineering to accelerate time-to-market and adoption.
