• Ensure code quality through testing, documentation, and code reviews.
• Monitor and improve CI/CD performance and reliability.
• Provide tier 3 support to client specialists by answering questions, troubleshooting, and fixing production issues.
• Stay current with industry trends, technologies, and best practices.
• Share these trends with peers.

What we value

• Bachelor’s (US or foreign equivalent, e.g. Master, Licenciatura) degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, or a related quantitative field.
• Proficiency in programing with C#/.NET, C++, or Java (Python preferred).
• Solid understanding of data structures, algorithms, and software design principles.
• Experience with numerical computing libraries (e.g., NumPy, pandas, SciPy).
• Familiarity with financial markets, instruments, and trading concepts.
• Experience with version control systems (e.g., Git) and CI/CD pipelines.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in a quantitative finance environment (e.g., hedge fund, prop trading, investment bank).
• Direct experience building and orchestrating AI‑powered, agentic workflows, such as multi‑step LLM pipelines, tool‑calling agents, or autonomous task automation.
• Familiarity with AI/ML frameworks and APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, LangChain, or similar agent orchestration frameworks) and experience applying them to real product features.
• Experience containerizing applications with Docker and deploying/orchestrating them with Kubernetes or similar container orchestration platforms.
• Exposure to cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, or GCP) and containerization through infrastructure‑as‑code practices.
• Effective communication skills and ability to explain technical tradeoffs to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
• Ability to work in a collaborative environment.

Benefits

However, in SimCorp, we believe we can offer more.

• Attractive compensation, a bonus program, and a retirement plan are fundamental components of any employment agreement.
