Technology Director – Digital Assets & Distributed Systems

Technology Director – Digital Assets & Distributed Systems

Full-Time No working from home possible
B

There’s a structural shift underway in how financial assets are issued, transferred, and settled.

An international financial market organisation is building a next-generation platform for digital securities and tokenised assets, in close collaboration with central banks and regulatory bodies.

They are now hiring a Technology Director to define the architecture and technical direction of this platform. This is not a programme leadership role—it’s a hands‑on, architecture‑first position for someone who can make and defend complex technical decisions at the highest level.

The Role

As Technology Director, you will define the architecture and technical direction for a next‑generation platform for digital securities and tokenised assets.

You will act as the senior technical authority across engineering, product, and senior stakeholders — shaping decisions across distributed systems, DLT platforms, and digital asset models within a regulated environment.

This is a new platform build rather than a legacy transformation, with central bank engagement already in place. The role offers high visibility at ExCo level within a lean structure — enabling meaningful influence without heavy hierarchy.

You will

  • Define and challenge architecture across DLT platforms, smart contracts, and digital asset models
  • Evaluate public vs private vs hybrid blockchain approaches in a regulated context
  • Shape the design of tokenised asset and digital cash solutions
  • Act as the senior technical authority across engineering, product, and senior stakeholders
  • Translate complex distributed systems concepts into clear, business‑relevant decisions

We're looking for someone who

  • Brings deep expertise in distributed systems and DLT / blockchain architecture
  • Demonstrates strong judgment across platform selection, interoperability, and system design
  • Can engage confidently with senior executives and regulators
  • Has a track record of taking complex technology from concept through to production

This is a rare opportunity to shape foundational infrastructure in the evolution of digital assets within regulated financial markets.

If you’re interested in a discreet conversation, get in touch directly.
