Cloud Managed Services is part of Nasdaq (former Adenza) Cloud Services which has been providing Cloud clients with secure and reliable services around Calypso solution since 2008. The Rebase Services team, composed of 26 subject-matter experts, plays a key role by assisting our Cloud clients to upgrade Calypso versions in a timely and cost-effective manner, and doing so, enable them to fully utilize improvements to Calypso. For that purpose, we build and execute a series of automated regression tests allowing to detect, analyze and remediate any reconciliation break.

Your role and responsibilities:

• Implement this suite of automated Test Scripts to perform regression testing
• Communicate results, analyze issues detected, address them directly (when a configuration change is vital for instance) or log appropriate SalesForce tickets
• Work in close collaboration with SaaS Ops, Customer Support, PM and Engineering teams to coordinate the quick resolution of SF tickets (when a bug fix is needed)
• Provide regular update to the Client and Management: Keep track of all open issues in an Excel template, Weekly Status Meeting …
• Coordinate manual end-user testing (SIT, UAT) performed by the Clients themselves, lead the issues raised by the Client (in the same way as those detected by automated Test Scripts)
• Work in conjunction with the Rebase Services Manager to set and lead customer expectations around project timelines
• Help in the development of the Offshore Rebase Services excellence center.

We expect you to have:

• Minimum of 7 years working in IT projects within the capital markets industry. 
• Must have Calypso implementation / upgrade experience (at least 4 years) from both a technical and functional perspective.
• A first experience in test automation is an advantage.

• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills. Will spend significant amounts of time working hands-on with customers and other Calypso departments.
• Ability to articulate procedures and create a re-usable framework for the service.

It would be great if you 

• CFA, IMC or CISI qualified or other post graduate finance qualification
