• Collaborate closely with business experts, traders, and quants to deliver complex features
• Apply and promote high‑quality engineering practices, including automated testing
• Proactively identify, troubleshoot, and resolve issues, ensuring long‑term stability

We are looking for you, if you have:

• MSc in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience
• 5+ years of experience building and maintaining production‑grade software
• Strong foundations in algorithms, data structures, design patterns, and concurrency
• Proven ability to build modular, testable, and maintainable systems
• Hands‑on expertise in Java, Spring Boot, Git, and SQL
• Strong analytical thinking and a problem‑solving mindset
• Good command of English (written and spoken)
• Knowledge of equity derivatives or trading concepts
