Full Stack Engineer - Trading Platform Desktop Team

A leading Investment Bank is seeking a Full Stack Engineer to join a central team responsible for developing a modern desktop platform used across trading and technology. This is a high-impact role that combines engineering, platform strategy, and direct business engagement.

You'll help shape a newly built internal platform that supports a large number of teams and applications, playing a key role in scaling its adoption and capabilities.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Build and support tools that other development teams use to deliver trading applications
• Work with both modern front-end (React or Angular) and back-end (Spring/REST) technologies
• Contribute to platform features such as application orchestration, integration tooling, and cloud enablement
• Collaborate with internal users, including technical teams and front-office users
• Support onboarding efforts as more teams transition onto the platform
• Help define how applications are delivered in a desktop container environment

Key requirements:

• Experience with modern UI frameworks (React, Angular, etc.)
• Proficiency in Java/Spring and RESTful APIs
• Exposure to cloud environments, ideally AWS
• Experience with desktop integration platforms (e.g., OpenFin or Electron)
• Understanding of financial or trading systems is highly beneficial
• Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset

Why Join?

• Be part of a highly visible, business-critical platform initiative
• Work directly with users and gain insight into real-world trading workflows
• Join a team where engineering is the focus - not just UI work
• Influence how next-gen tools are built and integrated across a large tech ecosystem
