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.

As a Risk Implementation Consultant, you won't just configure software. You will partner with treasury, accounting, and finance teams to understand their most pressing operational challenges, architect scalable solutions, and lead successful implementations across:

  • Debt & Investments
  • Derivatives — FX (Forwards, Swaps, Options) & Interest Rate (IRS, Caps, Floors, Collars)
  • Hedge Accounting (ASC 815 / IFRS 9)
  • Accounting Workflows & Financial Reporting
  • Cash Flow & Balance Sheet Hedging

WHAT YOU’LL DO

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.

  • Debt & Investments

  • Deep understanding of treasury and financial risk management: debt, FX and interest rate derivatives, hedge accounting, and accounting workflows
  • Proven ability to analyze complex business challenges and build creative, scalable client solutions
  • Strong solution architecture and business process design chops
  • Exceptional communicator — you translate complex concepts into clear, compelling business value
  • A relentless drive to problem-solve quickly and manage competing priorities without losing quality

  • Highly responsive, collaborative, and accountable — you own your outcomes
