Job description

Want to work in technology at an investment bank?

Here at mthree, we pair great graduates with brilliant global businesses. Our clients include tier one investment banks and other organizations across a range of industries, from insurance to healthcare to travel.

As part of the mthree Alumni program, mthree has an exciting and exclusive partnership with Columbia Univ. School of Engineering. All mthree Alumni are eligible to receive two Executive Education certificates from Columbia Engineering as part of their Academy and industry placement experience at no cost. Further, all participating Alumni will have access to the Columbia Engineering network and ongoing training.

What you'll do:

Production support plays a vital role in enterprise technology, from algorithmic trading engines to regulatory reporting.

Think of it as healthcare for technology. As a production support analyst with mthree, you’ll be on a shared mission to look after the technical systems and processes other teams rely on.

How the Alumni program works:

1. Apply via this job advert.
2. Complete our assessment process.

5. The vast majority then convert to permanent employees with the client at the end of the program.

What you’ll learn at the mthree Academy:

• How to discuss production support activity at a high level including ITIL (information technology infrastructure library), monitoring, DevOps, SRE (site reliability engineering), and disaster recovery.
• How to discuss common financial topics, including financial markets, equity trading, derivatives, currency, treasury, regulation, and risk.
• How to write a basic computer program in Python, including user input, common data structures, and flow of control.
• How to use MySQL to perform CRUD (create, read, update and delete) operations on a relational database stored in a MySQL Server.

What you’ll need:

• Bachelor's degree in computer science or a related STEM subject (science, technology, engineering, math).
• A GPA of 2.75 or higher. We look for potential, not prestige, but it’s important that you enjoy pushing yourself to pick up new ideas.
• Ability to troubleshoot, taking an analytical approach to solve problems.
• The right to work in Canada without needing visa sponsorship.

What you’ll get:

• In-depth interactive training in small classes with graduates like you. Our training is created and delivered by industry experts who know your field inside out.
• An annual pay rise to reflect your progress.
• Ongoing training, support and social events throughout your placement.
• An opportunity to kickstart your career and gain valuable experience in an attractive and exciting industry.
