Since launch, our services have eliminated trillions of dollars of gross notional through interest rate compression and billions of dollars in initial margin and capital requirements through counterparty risk optimisation.Our clients, including all the top tier global banks, regional banks, buy-side firms and other large institutional market participants, are serviced from offices in London, New York, Amsterdam and Tokyo Core Responsibilities - Technical & Product-Focused 1. Technical Service Execution & Analysis Perform detailed analysis of optimisation runs, risk movements and scenario behaviour to ensure accuracy, robustness and model validity. Investigate optimisation outputs and risk deltas; diagnose anomalies, model artefacts or constraint interactions. Develop and refine analytical frameworks for assessing optimisation efficiency, capital impacts and margin reductions. 2. Quantitative Product Design & Enhancement Contribute to the quantitative design of new optimisation methodologies, objective functions and constraint frameworks. Work closely with Engineering to specify model behaviour, mathematical logic, data requirements and performance expectations. Validate model changes and enhancements through rigorous testing, including scenario construction, boundary case probing and cross model comparisons. 3. Client-Facing Technical Expertise Explain the mechanics of margin, capital, and risk optimisation to clients with varying degrees of quantitative sophistication. Translate optimisation outputs into clear insights: why certain optimisation solutions emerged, how constraints influenced results, and how client portfolios could be configured to improve outcomes. Support client onboarding by providing deep technical input into data structures, CRIF interpretations, and modelling assumptions. Engage with clients and Relationship Managers to gather quantitative feedback and translate it into structured product requirements. 4. Cross-Functional Technical Collaboration Partner with the Engineering team to troubleshoot modelling issues, reconcile discrepancies, review algorithmic behaviour, and contribute to model improvements. Provide detailed specifications and logic walkthroughs for new features or enhancements. Assist with internal reviews of new optimisation capabilities, providing technical sign off based on validation results. 5.

Deep technical understanding of IR, FX or equity derivatives pricing, sensitivities, and risk decomposition. Strong familiarity with cleared/uncleared margin models (SIMM, CCP IM), capital frameworks and exposure methodologies. Demonstrated ability to work closely with quantitative engineers and developers on model behaviour and implementation details. Excellent communication skills to act as a technical translator between quantitative concepts, engineering constraints, and client needs. Degree (or advanced degree) in a quantitative discipline (Maths, Physics, Engineering, Computer Science). Strong analytical mindset; able to deconstruct complex optimisation behaviour and provide clear, data driven explanations.
