  • Risk data correctness and integrity:
    Ensures consistency and correctness of positions, exposures, pricing, and P&L outputs across end-of-day and reporting use cases.
  • Architecture and design stewardship:
    Guides and reviews architectural decisions across database, data ingestion pipelines, OpenSearch, and .NET/React-based UI and API layers.
  • Business and domain partnership:
    Partners closely with the Senior Business Analyst and Domain Modeler to translate business requirements into implementable technical designs, providing feasibility assessment and technical guidance.
  • Technical risk and debt management:
    Identifies, assesses, and proactively manages technical risks, performance bottlenecks, and technical debt to protect platform stability and long-term maintainability.
  • Delivery and production readiness:
    Supports release planning, cutovers, and production readiness, ensuring data availability, performance validation, and operational stability.
  • Engineering standards and quality:
    Defines and enforces standards for SQL development, data quality, lineage, DevOps and coding practices, and design patterns across the CRR engineering team.
  • Mentorship and capability uplift:
    Mentors engineers across streams and contributes to raising overall engineering quality, consistency, and technical maturity within the CRR team.
