SABRE STELLA/TDSX is the Trade booking API and automated life-cycling engine, which forms part of the SABRE platform. It has been rolled out as part of a bank wide Financial Markets re-platforming Programme (FMRP) and is expected to scale from its current coverage to all derivatives and structured products from SCB’s product catalogue.

As a Business Analyst, you will assist with the execution of the product roadmap for SABRE STELLA/TDSX globally and expand the platform functionality with all in scope businesses, lifecycle events and booking models. This will require a combination of strong business analysis, solution design and problem-solving skills, a profile comfortable working with a team of subject matters experts, software engineers and testers, and engaging in the design details.

  • An integration/coordination layer between pre-trade components and all Operations systems,
  • A confirmations Engine,
  • A settlements Engine
  • Unified data query API
