Industry UsageCommon term for trading activities within Canadian marketsRefers specifically to individuals trading stocks, often internationally

Trading Canada generally refers to trading activities within the Canadian financial markets, often performed by traders or investors operating in Canada.

What are some common challenges faced by trading professionals in Canada, and how can they effectively navigate them?

Trading professionals in Canada often encounter challenges such as rapidly changing market conditions, compliance with evolving regulations, and the need to stay updated on global economic trends that impact Canadian markets.

Collaborating closely with compliance teams and leveraging advanced trading technologies can also help mitigate risks and enhance decision-making in this dynamic environment.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Trader in Canada, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Trader in Canada, you need strong analytical skills, financial market knowledge, and typically a degree in finance, economics, or a related field. Proficiency in trading platforms like Bloomberg, Reuters, and knowledge of regulatory requirements such as IIROC licensing or the Canadian Securities Course (CSC) are often essential. Excellent decision-making, risk management, and effective communication skills set standout traders apart. These abilities are crucial for making informed trades, managing risk, and ensuring compliance in a fast-paced, high-stakes environment.

Job description

The Product Specialist - Trading will work within the Product Management organization on the Trade Management & Workflow vertical of Oneview, a nextgeneration fronttorisk application for the financial markets industry.

The role owns the endtoend functional specification of a trade as it lives within Oneview: from pretrade analysis and validation, through trade capture and booking, across all lifecycle events, and through interactions with upstream and downstream systems. These include upstream trading venues and clearing platforms, as well as downstream payment, settlement, and backoffice systems. The remit also includes tradelevel settled cash flows and their full lifecycle.

While primarily focused on workflows and controls rather than analytics, the role requires a solid understanding of core risk management concepts to ensure trade processes are riskaware and fully compatible with downstream risk and PnL analytics.

What You'll Do:

  • Define functional specifications for the complete trade lifecycle within a fronttorisk application, from pretrade checks through booking, lifecycle events, and termination.
  • Own usercentric requirements in JIRA for trade capture, booking models, lifecycle states, approvals, validations, and workflow orchestration.
  • Specify interactions with upstream systems such as execution venues, trading platforms, and clearing houses (e.g. trade enrichment, confirmations, clearing state).
  • Define workflows governing downstream integrations with payment systems, settlement platforms, and backoffice systems.
  • Own functional behavior for tradelevel settled cash flows, including generation, amendments, netting, settlement status, and lifecycle tracking.
  • Define booking hierarchies and core trade attributes (legal entity, desk, book) and ensure correctness for downstream risk, PnL, and operations.
  • Collaborate with UX/Design to define intuitive screens for trade capture, lifecycle tracking, workflow actions, and operational views.
  • Ensure workflows enforce appropriate controls, roles, permissions, and approval chains.
  • Define functional test cases and support reviews and UAT with trading, operations, and risk users.
  • Act as the primary functional contact for developers on Trade Management & Workflow topics.


What We're Looking For:

  • 5+ years of experience with trade management or fronttoback trading systems.
  • Strong understanding of the full derivative trade lifecycle, including clearing, settlement, and cashflow processing.
  • Good working knowledge of risk management fundamentals (PnL, sensitivities, VaR, exposure) and their dependency on accurate trade and lifecycle data.
  • Experience specifying workflows involving upstream venues or clearing platforms and downstream payment and backoffice systems.
  • Proven ability to write clear, structured, usercentric requirements in JIRA.
  • Exposure to multiple asset classes and their lifecycle specificities.
  • Strong communicator, comfortable working across product, engineering, trading, operations, and risk teams.

Where You'll Work:

This is a hybrid or remote role, open to the USA and Canada with a preference for those who live in the New York City area.  The successful candidate must agree to work in Eastern Time Zone hours.

The annual pay range for this position is based on the preferred primary location of the role which is listed above. If you are applying to this role at a location that is not the preferred primary location, please keep in mind the salary range will vary and may fall outside of what is listed.
