As a Senior Software Engineer, Backend on the Client Lifecycle team within the Institutional group, you'll own the backend systems that take institutional clients from application to first trade and keep them operating independently once they're live.

What you'll do:

Own backend services that move institutional clients from application to first trade, including Unified Business Onboarding, KYC Refresh, and provisioning.

Drive onboarding automation, including automated screening, risk scoring, and auto-provisioning, so low-risk clients complete onboarding without an ops ticket.

Lead design and implementation of Organizations Service as the source of truth for institutional client data, including data quality, entity uniqueness, and Salesforce decoupling.

Partner with Product, Compliance, Onboarding Ops, Identity, and Prime product teams to ship onboarding and access controls for new products including FCM, Hudson derivatives, and Prime Custody.
