Chief Technology Officer

About the Role

The CTO will own technology for doit Holdings, our regulated investment platform in Malaysia. This is a build role. The platform does not exist yet, and it has to be built inside a technology risk framework that satisfies the Securities Commission's Guidelines on Technology Risk Management from the first line of code. The role runs from architecture and engineering execution through to the systems evidence the SC assesses at registration.

What you will be doing

• Own architecture and major technical decisions for the platform, from onboarding and order routing through records, reporting and the partner interfaces.
• Build and lead the engineering team, and set standards across reliability, security, performance, testing and code quality.
• Implement the SC's technology risk requirements as engineering practice: change control and approvals, secure development, testing and acceptance, capacity and resilience.
• Produce the systems evidence behind the readiness declaration a director and the Responsible Person must sign before the platform may operate.
• Take the platform through the independent technology validation that gates registration, and close what it finds.
• Own business continuity and disaster recovery, tested rather than documented.
• Own cloud, vendor and outsourcing arrangements, where the board remains accountable for everything outsourced.
