Delivery & Execution Drive disciplined product delivery across multiple product initiatives and client engagements. Coordinate closely with engineering, client solutions, and operations teams. Manage development timelines, technical dependencies, and resource allocation.

Client & Market Engagement Work closely with financial institutions, exchanges, and strategic partners to understand evolving market requirements. Support business development by translating technical capabilities into clear product propositions. Participate in discussions with regulators and industry participants regarding digital market infrastructure.

Team Leadership Build and lead a high-performing product and engineering organisation. Foster a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement. Mentor product managers and engineering leads, developing future leaders within the organisation.
