What You'll Do

Evaluate the existing DCO clearing environment and identify what needs to be built, improved, or replaced to support scale
Own clearing-related SOPs, runbooks, escalation paths, and internal documentation — if a process doesn't have a document, you write it; if it's outdated, you fix it
Partner daily with Control Desk, Clearinghouse, DCM, DCO, Finance, Treasury, Compliance, Product, Engineering, the ISV team, and CX to keep clearing operations running and drive improvements across all touch points
Serve as the operational thought leader for client-facing process quality — translate user pain points into process improvements and SLA enhancements, and close the loop between what clients experience and how the back office operates
Support treasury management, cash movement, reconciliation, settlement, and liquidity workflows; understand where the money is at every point in the lifecycle
Define and operate within SLAs — where they don't yet exist, propose them, document them, and hold the organization to them
Identify operational gaps, control weaknesses, and tooling deficiencies; bring problems forward with proposed solutions, not just observations
Partner with Product and Engineering to build and improve clearing tools, exception management workflows, dashboards, and operational controls
Support issue triage and resolution across clearing, settlement, treasury, and exchange operations — stay calm when things go sideways and move quickly to resolve

What We're Looking For

5+ years of hands-on experience in financial markets operations with direct, demonstrated depth across clearing, settlement, and treasury
Hands-on experience with treasury management, liquidity operations, cash movement, and reconciliation workflows — you understand where the money is and how it moves at every point in the lifecycle
Strong working knowledge of clearing workflows, trade lifecycle, reconciliation, settlement, operational controls, and escalation management
Experience operating in regulated financial services environments with a practical understanding of what compliance and control actually require
Ability to independently create SOPs, process maps, controls documentation, and runbooks — you don't need someone to write the outline
Strong analytical skills with the ability to work fluidly across business, compliance, finance, and technical teams without losing the thread
Self-starter mentality — you know what matters and go after it without waiting to be told
Calm under pressure and comfortable operating in a high-velocity, high-stakes environment where operational decisions carry real regulatory and financial weight
