About The Position

As a Vice President Software Engineer within Controllers Engineering, you will lead, mentor, and scale a high performing team of 10+ engineers. Controllers Engineering is responsible for designing and implementing solutions to manage the firm’s profit and loss (P&L), measure and monitor the firm’s capital, balance sheet and liquidity metrics, and regulatory obligations. Our global agile teams (based across Americas, EMEA & Asia) develop and manage the platforms, calculation engines, and analytical tools that controllers, risk management, and deal-making teams use to project, monitor and report externally to regulators for both regular business activity and under stress scenarios. The Data Reconciliation Platform is a firmwide data consistency and control platform that reconciles, normalizes, and governs high-volume data—matching records across sources, flagging discrepancies, and tracking their resolution via intelligent, policy-driven workflows—to ensure accuracy, compliance, and trusted business operations. It is being modernized into an AI-powered fully cloud-native reconciliation platform that will autonomously match, validate, assign and explain exceptions across all businesses—delivering real-time accuracy, auditability, and insight at scale.
