Who we are

Although not a household name, State Street is one of the world’s largest and most important financial services institutions, providing round-the-clock services to the global investment community. We touch $33 trillion in assets every day and are the world’s third largest investment manager with over $2.8 trillion in assets under management.

GlobalLink is State Street’s global suite of electronic trading platforms, technology, and workflow solutions designed to support institutional clients across the full FX trade lifecycle. It enables clients to execute, manage, and post‑process FX transactions efficiently, transparently, and at scale by connecting them to a broad global network of liquidity providers and market participants. A flagship component of the GlobalLink suite is FX Connect, a multi‑bank FX trading platform that integrates execution, workflow automation, and straight‑through processing. FX Connect supports a wide range of execution styles, integrates with major OMS and downstream systems, and is tightly coupled with post‑trade services such as confirmation, matching, netting, and settlement via TradeNeXus

The Integration role within GlobalLink sits at the intersection of technology, product, and client delivery, ensuring that GlobalLink integrations are robust, compliant, scalable, and aligned with both client requirements and platform strategy. A key focus in this role will be to ensure successful migration of FX Connect clients from Sonic MQ to FIX as their API protocol. Deep expertise in financial platforms, Sonic MQ and FIX technology are required for this role.
