The Work

We believe solving complex financial challenges demands more than cutting-edge technology — it requires bold thinkers who can act decisively, move fast, and guide clients through transformation with confidence and creativity.

Responsibilities

  • Lead Discovery & Strategic Consulting

  • Drive high-impact discovery workshops with energy and precision. Uncover client pain points, map business processes, surface accounting requirements, and design the path forward — all while building the trusted relationships that make transformations stick.

  • Architect Bold Solutions

  • Design and document future-state solution architectures that align Ripple Treasury's capabilities with each client's unique business objectives and regulatory requirements. Bring creative problem-solving and technical depth to every engagement — no two clients are the same, and you'll thrive on that challenge.

  • Deliver Across Key Risk Disciplines

      • Design and implement FX hedging strategies aligned with client risk policies, including cash flow and balance sheet hedging programs

      • Support mark-to-market (MTM) valuation and counterparty exposure monitoring

      • Implement and manage interest rate derivative instruments including interest rate swaps (IRS), caps, floors, collars, and swaptions

      • Help clients model and monitor interest rate risk across fixed and floating rate debt portfolios, optimizing their risk-reward profile

      • Support fair value and cash flow hedge accounting for IRS instruments under ASC 815 and IFRS 9, including effectiveness testing and journal entry automation

      • Deliver MTM valuations, sensitivity analysis, and regulatory reporting support for interest rate derivative programs

      • Hedge Accounting

      • Guide clients through complex hedge accounting requirements under ASC 815 and IFRS. Own designation, effectiveness testing, documentation, and valuation — while helping organizations slash manual processes and stay audit-ready.

      • Accounting & Financial Reporting

      • Partner with Accounting and Finance teams to modernize reporting processes, automate journal entries, and improve reconciliation workflows. Ensure seamless alignment between treasury operations and accounting treatment.
