Lead the end‑to‑end SA‑CCR architecture, defining the framework for RC, PFE and EAD calculations, including netting sets, supervisory factors and collateral/CSA logic
Design a modern Databricks architecture using Delta Lake, Unity Catalog and Spark/PySpark to support versioned, reproducible and regulator‑defensible exposure calculations
Develop high‑performance compute pipelines that support intraday recalculation, scenario testing and rapid exposure analytics across complex derivatives portfolios
Establish strong governance and auditability, embedding lineage, versioning, entitlements, and evidence‑ready data flows throughout the architecture
Architect an AI‑ready platform, enabling explainable, controlled and reproducible AI‑assisted recalculation and optimisation, without compromising regulatory expectations
Collaborate with stakeholders across Risk, Quants, Technology, Capital/Treasury, Security and Front Office to align architecture with regulatory, operational and strategic requirements
Own architectural deliverables, including target state blueprints, integration patterns, data contracts, governance standards and audit artefacts
Support programme milestones, including parallel run, validation, remediation and optimisation, delivering architectural leadership with minimal onboarding.
Requirements
7+ years of experience in regulatory technology, risk systems or large-scale data platforms within financial services
Deep understanding of SA‑CCR (RC, PFE, EAD), exposure methodology, netting sets, supervisory parameters and collateral/CSA design
Strong Databricks engineering capability, including Delta Lake versioning, Unity Catalog governance, Spark/PySpark optimisation and secure data architecture
Experience designing governed, audit‑ready systems, with a focus on lineage, reproducibility, evidence trails and internal/external audit requirements
AI‑related architectural experience, including explainable optimisation techniques, governed model deployment, versioning, RBAC and deterministic output controls
Strong stakeholder and communication skills, with the ability to translate complex architectural and regulatory concepts into actionable designs for diverse audiences
Self‑directed and delivery‑focused, able to operate autonomously in complex environments and produce polished, regulator‑ready documentation.
