I integrated and enhanced technology stacks and merged teams across 3 NEX Group businesses to successfully deliver the NEX Regulatory Reporting programme which included projects for EMIR level 3 trade reporting rewrite, MiFID2 ARM transaction reporting and APA transparency reporting, the NEX Abide Trade Repository, ASIC, MAS and SFTR.

I managed the scope and schedule of Nasdaq’s Genium matching engine upgrades to create BrokerTec’s programme of IT change, including functional and technical requirements from a number of businesses, taking day-to-day project management responsibility to ensure that we delivered on time and on schedule with no impact to system up-time. I oversaw a number of functional enhancements for BrokerTec, including: Mid-market Matching to allow orders and trades in a dark liquidity pool at the mid-point of the bid-offer spread, RFQ with optional CLOB interaction, Advanced Matching sessions which allow traders to determine the price before the session commences, Repo Spread functionality using moneyfill general collateral allocation, pre-order risk management and net trade size limits. I managed a portfolio of infrastructure projects making improvements to BrokerTec’s co-location facility for high frequency, latency sensitive algorithmic trading customers that resulted in the production system average round-trip time for order entry (measured outside the gateway) being reduced to less than 100µs.
