About the job
This isn t just another integration role. Looking for someone who has worked within sanctions, financial regulation and risk systems such as LexisNexus or FircoSoft.
Someone who is familiar with global regulations around payment routing data and anti-money laundering solutions, risk, etc.
It s for someone who knows exactly what it takes to build and lead technology that keeps a global financial firm compliant with economic sanctions.
If you don t have hands-on sanctions platform experience, this isn t the right fit.

- Build MQ-based integrations with vended systems (bonus if it s FircoSoft)
- Architect redundancy and deployment workflows that meet audit demands
- Guide offshore teams and deliver under real deadlines
- Communicate with business stakeholders who care more about risk than tech buzzwords

- Worked with MQ, FircoSoft, or similar vendor-driven environments
- Led teams across time zones and still hit your deadlines

- Model governance, RPA, or automation
- The consulting or financial services world
What kind of person thrives in this role?
You ve been in the integration game for 10+ years and know how to lead a build without babysitting it. You get how high-stakes compliance work really is and you treat it with the precision it deserves.
You re the calm in the chaos.
You speak fluent tech but can translate it for execs and those who aren't technical...at all!
You challenge outdated systems and bring better ideas to the table.
And when the deadline s tight? You re the one they trust to land the plane.
If you ve led global teams, worked with vended systems (MQ especially), and know your way around data architecture, this is your kind of project.
