We are seeking a techno-functional specialist who can bridge Asset/Wealth Management business processes with blockchain-based tokenization solutions, using the Ctrl Alt tokenization infrastructure.

Key Responsibilities

1) Product / Business & Operating Model (Asset Management)

• Lead discovery workshops to define target use cases (e.g., fund tokenization, tokenized units/shares, investor onboarding, lifecycle events, and distribution).
• Map end-to-end Asset Management workflows to tokenized equivalents: onboarding, subscriptions/redemptions, transfers, corporate actions, reconciliations, reporting, and custody interactions.
• Define functional requirements for transfer agency / registry, investor eligibility, restrictions, and operational controls (e.g., permissions, approvals, exception handling).
• Translate regulatory and compliance requirements into platform controls (KYC/AML, suitability, investor classification, reporting obligations).

2) Tokenization Solution Design (Techno Functional)

• Define tokenization patterns and data models: token lifecycle, holder registry concepts, entitlement models, and event handling (mint/burn/transfer, freeze, replace).
• Produce end-to-end solution designs covering:
  • On-chain/off-chain boundary decisions
  • Identity and access management approach
  • Integration patterns with existing AM systems (order management, TA/registry, fund accounting/NAV, custody, risk/compliance)
• Create functional specifications and user stories for engineering teams; validate acceptance criteria with business and compliance stakeholders.

3) Ctrl Alt Platform Enablement & Integrations

• Act as the primary functional SME for implementation using Ctrl Alt, including:
  • Requirements mapping to platform capabilities (structuring/issuance/management) – ctrl-alt.co
  • Defining integration needs (APIs/events/files) for investor onboarding, issuance, transfers, and reporting
  • Supporting test strategy and UAT for tokenized product flows
• Coordinate with Ctrl Alt and internal engineering teams to ensure integration readiness, data quality, and operational runbooks.

4) Delivery, Testing, and Operationalization

• Own the end-to-end delivery plan for tokenization initiatives: scope, milestones, dependencies, and go-live readiness.
• Define test scenarios and validation checks across workflows (onboarding, KYC/AML, transfers, distribution, reconciliation, reporting).
• Develop operating procedures and controls for production: monitoring, incident workflows, audit evidence, and change management.

5) Stakeholder Management & Thought Leadership

• Partner with senior stakeholders across Product, Operations, Compliance, Risk, Legal, and Technology.
• Produce executive-ready artifacts: business case, operating model impacts, risk/control assessments, and roadmap options.
• Track external ecosystem trends relevant to fund tokenization and digital securities sandboxes (e.g., initiatives such as digital securities sandbox participation referenced publicly) – ir.seic.com
