You will work with exchanges, banks, and brokers to help them address complex testing, certification, and integration challenges within their trading infrastructure.

Position Requirements - 6-10+ years of experience in account management, client services, professional services delivery, or consulting within financial technology or capital markets. - Proven experience working with exchanges, banks, and brokers, or other capital markets institutions. - Experience supporting or managing client engagements, including proposal preparation and involvement in contract discussions. - Familiarity with electronic trading environments, APIs, connectivity protocols, or trading system architecture. - Ability to understand client requirements and translate them into structured service engagements. - Proven experience coordinating or managing delivery of professional services engagements, ideally involving QA, testing, or system integration teams. - Experience working closely with technical teams (QA, engineering) to plan, execute, and monitor project delivery. - Strong client-facing communication and presentation skills. - Excellent attention to detail in written communication and commercial documentation. - Strong organizational and coordination skills, with the ability to manage multiple engagements simultaneously. Bonus Skills (optional, but would be a plus) - Knowledge of the FIX Protocol and experience working with FIX-based trading environments. - Experience with exchange certification testing or trading system onboarding projects. - Familiarity with API testing tools, messaging protocols, or automated testing frameworks. - Experience coordinating or participating in technical client implementations or integration projects. - Experience participating in industry events or client-facing presentations.
