The mission of the Product Control Lead is to serve as the primary guardian of financial integrity for our principal trading activities. In this role, you will bridge the gap between complex on-chain/off-chain trading activity and institutional financial reporting. You will be responsible for the end-to-end reconciliation of spot and complex derivative portfolios, ensuring that every trade is accounted for, every risk is captured, and every report delivered to our leadership and regulators is bulletproof. You will not just manage data; you will build the infrastructure that allows our trading desk to scale safely in a fast-evolving market.

Requirements

• Professional experience using SQL or Python for data analysis.
• You have a deep curiosity for how financial products work under the hood and a "detective" mindset when it comes to reconciling data.
• You are autonomous, detail-oriented, and thrive in a fast-paced environment where the "right answer" requires digging through complex data sets.
• You possess a Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Mathematics, or a related quantitative field.

Nice To Haves

• You have a professional certification such as a CFA, FRM, or CPA.

Responsibilities

• Operational Workflow Mapping: You understand and can document the end-to-end trading lifecycle—from order entry and execution to confirmation, settlement, and collateral management—and proactively identify bottlenecks or control gaps in the operational process.
• Reconciliation Ownership: You independently manage the daily reconciliation of principal trading positions between internal records, exchange APIs, and external custodians, proactively resolving breaks before they impact P&L.
• Automation: Automate the categorizations of possible system noise (timing gaps, derivative marks) to ensure the daily recon focuses only on genuine operational breaks or actionable areas of focus.
• Regulatory Reporting: You ensure the accurate and timely preparation of daily, weekly, and monthly regulatory filings (such as CFTC, SEC, or regional equivalents). You design and implement data controls to guarantee that all trade reporting to Swap Data Repositories (SDRs) or other regulatory bodies meets stringent accuracy and completeness standards.
• Compliance & Audit Readiness: You act as the primary point of contact for audits and regulatory inquiries regarding trade data and valuation, ensuring that every report delivered to regulators is bulletproof and backed by verifiable data.
• System Readiness: Act as the Gatekeeper for new product launches, custodians, exchanges, and entity expansions, ensuring that reconciliation logic and platform access are functional
• Process Engineering: You identify systemic gaps in data quality and work directly with Engineering and Data teams to build automated solutions for trade capture and reporting.
