Security Engineer, Institutional Trading

What You Will Do

• Partner with Trading, Middle Office and Quant (Institutional FinOps) teams to map out inventory trading systems, data flows, third‑party integrations and custody/settlement touchpoints.
• Conduct deep‑dive assessments mapping critical assets and workflows to identify structural vulnerabilities. Define the Target State and draft strategic Risk Treatment Plans (RTP) required to meet institutional‑grade standards (e.g., CCSS, NIST, DORA).
• Act as the primary security liaison for Senior Management and third‑party vendors. Translate complex technical gaps into actionable business risk summaries, drive vendor evaluations for core security infrastructure, and manage the project lifecycle for high‑impact posture uplifts.
• Implement and maintain monitoring for FinOps‑specific security signals such as abnormal order patterns, signature misuse, unusual settlements. Integrate these signals into SIEM/SOAR for real‑time response.
