Job Description

About the role

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Legal Reporting team in Edinburgh. Our team plays a crucial role in enabling regulatory compliance across the bank — both through integration with third-party providers (like Regnology, WKFS, etc.) and via the development of in-house regulatory reporting solutions.

While a large part of our work involves building and maintaining ETL adapters between Avaloq and external systems, we’re also responsible for native reporting logic, data model extensions, and ongoing support of core legal reporting features. If you're passionate about data pipelines, financial systems, and regulatory tech, this role offers both depth and diversity.

What You’ll Do

• Design, develop, and maintain data integration components (ETL/adapters) connecting Avaloq’s data model to third-party reporting platforms, and native reporting solutions built directly within Avaloq
• Collaborate with business stakeholders and internal tech teams to ensure regulatory requirements are translated into robust, scalable reporting logic
• Drive improvements in PL/SQL logic, data structures, and mapping layers
• Contribute to ongoing efforts around data quality, performance tuning, and compliance-driven automation
• Act as a senior engineer within the team, offering technical guidance and support to colleagues

Qualifications

• Strong proven track record of working in a similar role at a senior level
• Strong experience with relational databases (ideally Oracle PL/SQL)
• Solid understanding of data integration, ETL, and data mapping techniques
• Familiarity with core banking platforms

It would be a real bonus if you have:

• Regulatory frameworks (FINREP, COREP, ANACREDIT, ...)
• working with third-party vendors (e.g. Regnology, OneSumX, Axiom, Vermeg or similar)
• A proactive mindset and ability to navigate complex financial data landscapes
• Avaloq ACP certified professional
