This investments client is investing heavily in a strategic platform build-out driven by T+1 settlement requirements and continued business growth.

We're looking for engineers who enjoy building systems rather than maintaining them. This is an opportunity to join a growing team responsible for developing core Trade Lifecycle, Settlement, Finance Systems and Regulatory Reporting platforms supporting multiple asset classes.

The Opportunity You'll be involved in designing and building a next-generation platform covering:

• Trade Lifecycle Management
• Settlement Processing
• Finance Systems
• Regulatory Reporting
• Market & Reference Data Integration

• Java
• Python
• Spring Boot
• Kafka
• Linux
• PostgreSQL
• AWS
• Microservices
• REST APIs

• Regulatory Reporting
• Finance Systems
• Trade Lifecycle Processing
• Market Data Platforms
• Post-Trade & Settlement Systems
• Data Integration & Transformation
• Event-Driven Architectures

Experience with asset classes such as Equities, Futures, Securities Lending or Structured Products would be beneficial but not essential.

Ideal Backgrounds You may currently be working as:

• Java Developer

• Software Engineer
• Regulatory Reporting Developer
• Market Data Engineer
• Trade Lifecycle Developer
• Finance Systems Engineer
• Integration Engineer

Why Join?
