My client is a leading tech-driven prop trading firm, trading their own capital across a broad range of asset classes, instruments and strategies in markets worldwide.

Developers here have large amounts of ownership and autonomy in decision-making, and are always looking for the very best tool to solve each individual problem.

This is a position where the ability to collaborate closely with your team is essential: you will need to constantly context switch to higher priority tasks and delegate to colleagues who have better technical knowledge or capacity. Requirements: • Minimum 3 years' experience in backend engineering • Substantial programming knowledge - Java, Elixir, Scala and Typescript • Financial services experience preferred • Experience with Kubernetes, Docker, Linux, git, etc. • Strong debugging and troubleshooting skills • Excellent communication and collaboration skills Desirable: • Working knowledge of SQL & Spark • Data Lakehouse implementation experience or working knowledge of underlying concepts Benefits: • Strong base salaries + bonus + generous benefits • Join a relaxed but high-performance engineering culture with the chance to make a real impact • Feel valued for your input and get rewarded for great ideas Whilst we carefully review all applications, to all jobs, due to the high volume of applications we receive it is not possible to respond to those who have not been successful.
