Soft Skills

Industry-Specific Knowledge

It is desirable to have practical familiarity with one or more core financial domains such as lending, payments, credit cards, open finance, fraud prevention, merchant acquiring, or investment services, along with an understanding of their fundamental workflows and business drivers. Experience in how these domains intersect to influence revenue, risk management, and customer satisfaction is highly valued.

Ideally, candidates will have applied this knowledge to deliver solutions such as loan-origination engines with real-time decisioning; scalable payment-processing platforms integrated with core banking systems and third-party gateways; secure open-finance interfaces compliant with industry regulations; automated fraud-detection pipelines leveraging behavioral analytics; or financial reporting and reconciliation engines for regulatory compliance. The ability to translate complex compliance mandates (e.g., KYC / AML, PCI-DSS, GDPR) into resilient, high-performance systems without compromising user experience is considered a strong asset.
