HireSetu's note

Support and configuration, close to the business

You sit between the legal and compliance teams and the people who build their software. When a KYC or agreement workflow misfires, a batch job needs a re-run, or a new joiner needs access, the request lands with this team. SQL carries most of the day-to-day work, Python handles small scripts and automation, and Excel is where data gets checked and passed around. Releases and audits add their own rhythm. The shift points to overlap with US colleagues, so expect a working day that starts after lunch and ends close to midnight.

Freshers with a database habit fit best

Nothing here demands years of experience. Foundational programming and database knowledge covers it, and the degree list runs from computer science to business, which says they will teach the domain. A college project or internship with SQL behind it counts for more than a long list of frameworks. Exposure to an ERP or financial platform is written as exposure, so a module or a project is enough to talk about. The AI requirement is the one to take literally: an employer that names specific tools wants to hear how you use one on real work. One example of a script a model drafted and you then fixed beats a survey of your favourite apps.

Two years here, and the moves after it

Compliance technology is a narrow field with steady demand, and two things in this job are hard to pick up anywhere else: how KYC, agreement management and contract lifecycle systems work in practice, and how a regulated firm tests, documents and releases change. Application analyst and business analyst roles in financial services are the usual next step. The functional half, pulling a compliance process apart and writing the requirement, is what gets you there.
