Lead Business Analyst - Fixed Income and OTC Trading Systems - J13268

About the Client Our client, an established, well-capitalized securities firm, is looking for a lead BA to deliver greenfield projects under a Type 11 License for their fixed income desk. The Role & Landscape In this role, you will take ownership of the business analysis and project delivery lifecycle for core trading and post-trade systems supporting listed Fixed Income and OTC derivative products. Key Responsibilities:

• Partner directly with product owners, risk managers, and operations to translate complex trading needs into technical user stories, workflows, and specifications.
• Own the full SDLC delivery path: create functional prototypes, define business architecture, and run regular sprint cycles directly with engineering squads in Mainland China.
• Ensure all trade booking, position keeping, and reporting pipelines comply strictly with Hong Kong regulatory frameworks, specifically upcoming SFC Type 11 requirements.
• Oversee day-to-day functional platform health, handling Tier-2/3 business escalations for trade settlement and clearing workflows to ensure zero operational downtime.
• Drive project prioritization and resource planning across multiple concurrent initiatives, keeping global stakeholders aligned on scope and delivery timelines. What We Are Looking For
• 10+ years of FinTech or technical business analysis experience supporting institutional capital markets trading or settlement platforms.
• Deep product domain expertise across Fixed Income and OTC derivatives.
• Comprehensive trade lifecycle knowledge, including position bookkeeping, credit and market risk controls, confirmation, settlement, and clearing.
• Hands-on delivery capability: You know how to break down complex architectures, build functional prototypes, and produce clear technical documentation.
• Language skills: Fluency in English to engage overseas business stakeholders, combined with strong Mandarin listening and speaking skills to collaborate effectively with Mainland China-based engineering teams.
• Valued additions: Previous exposure to Hong Kong SFC regulatory projects (such as RA11 preparation), AML/compliance platforms, or client onboarding engines. Why Apply To This Role
• True Functional Ownership: You are not a dashboard-updating PMO. You will actively design system logic, shape system architecture, and influence production code.
• High Visibility: Work directly with senior trading desk heads, risk executives, and technology leaders across regional offices.
• Strong Backing: Join an institution investing heavily in scalable trading technology to support long-term regional expansion.
