Each team has a slightly different technical focus, giving opportunities to work on everything from high-performance applications to secure regulatory platforms.

We’re really interested in yoiur ability to solve complex technical problems using your Python development experience within Financla Services / banking. applications

If you have exposure to Regulatory Technology, Trading or Front Office systems, Security engineering or GitHub Copilot or AI-assisted development, all the better!

You don’t need to be an AI expert, but you should be interested in how it’s changing software engineering.

You’ll work on projects that directly support one of the world’s leading investment banks, having exposure to cutting-edge regulatory and AI initiatives. These are genuine long-term investment hires rather than backfill hiring.
