Job description

Deliver professional services across the full Murex MX.3 Front Office (FO) lifecycle—requirements, solution design, configuration, build, testing/UAT, training, upgrades, and production support. You will work closely with Trading, Structuring, Market Risk, Product Control, and Technology teams to deliver FO pricing and trading workflows, instrument/product setup, market data/curves, and robust BAU support.

You’ll configure and support pricing models, market data & curves, volatility surfaces, and trade capture processes across asset classes (e.g., FX, Rates, Credit, Equities). You’ll also contribute to STP, controls, and FO-to-MO/BO alignment, ensuring accurate valuation, risk, and P&L across environments.

Requirements:

• MX.3 Front Office experience: strong hands‑on delivery in FO trading & pricing within MX.3, including configuration and functional ownership.
• Asset class knowledge: experience in one or more of FX (Spot/Fwd/Swaps/Options), Rates (Swaps/Options/Bonds), Credit (CDS/TRS), Equities/Commodities.
• Pricing & analytics: solid understanding of valuation, curves/discounting, vol surfaces, calibration, and model inputs/outputs.
• Market data & curves: experience setting up and validating yield curves, indices, fixings, dividends, vol/smile, and market data controls.
• Trade capture & workflow: proven delivery of trade booking, amend/cancel, lifecycle events, and FO validations; familiarity with eTradepad is a plus.
• Tech stack: strong SQL; comfortable with Unix/Linux; scripting with Python/Shell for diagnostics, reconciliation, and automation.
• Testing & documentation: contribute to design docs, build specs, test scenarios, and UAT support; able to drive defect triage to closure.
• Stakeholder management: confident working directly with FO users; clear communication, ownership mindset, and ability to manage priorities in fast‑paced delivery.
• Nice to have: exposure to Datamart/Reporting, integration concepts (MxML/APIs/Connectivity), CI/CD, or upgrade/migration programs.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, configure, and deliver MX.3 FO solutions (remote/on-site) aligned to trading and product control requirements.
• Implement and support pricing setup: instruments/products, pricing profiles, model parameters, and valuation controls.
• Configure and validate market data: curves, fixings, vol surfaces, discounting/forecasting frameworks, and data quality checks.
• Support trade capture workflows: booking models, validations, lifecycle events, FO controls, and STP alignment to downstream teams.
• Perform pricing/risk/P&L diagnostics: analyze differences across environments, explain drivers, and coordinate fixes with Technology.
• Own BAU support end‑to‑end: triage incidents, reproduce issues, propose fixes, coordinate releases, and validate in UAT/Prod.
• Produce and maintain documentation: solution design, configuration runbooks, test cases, release notes, and operational procedures.
• Collaborate with FO/MO/BO/Risk & Product Control to refine requirements, manage enhancements, and ensure stable front‑to‑back delivery.
