Job Summary

The FX and Rates team plays a key role in supporting Equinix's rapid international growth. Operating in over 30 countries and generating the majority of our earnings outside the U.S., we face complex foreign currency environments as we expand globally. To enable scalable solutions for cash flow predictability, earnings protection, and equity risk reduction, we actively manage foreign exchange exposure through the use of FX derivatives.

Our growth - driven by both organic expansion and M&A - combined with the capital-intensive nature of our business and our REIT structure, requires frequent access to debt and equity markets. To mitigate the interest rate risk associated with this ongoing funding activity, we utilize interest rate derivatives.

In this role, you will be responsible for managing the end-to-end derivative hedge accounting processes and the period-end close. You will have the opportunity to problem-solve and drive process improvements that support Equinix's continued growth. Your work will be essential in optimizing workflows and ensuring our operations scale effectively with the business. The ideal candidate brings expertise in derivative hedge accounting within a multinational environment and will contribute to accurate financial reporting and presentation. This role collaborates closely with teams across Accounting, Corporate FP&A, Tax, and other key business units.
