Job description

Overview

Details of the Division and Team: FIC Technology team is responsible for managing technology related to FX, Emerging markets, Rates, Credit and Listed Derivatives business.

The Production Support engineer acts as a professional in the Global FX IT support team, providing front line support to the trading and sales business community and external clients for the FX applications (Pricing and Trading) and their associated applications used by the Global Foreign Exchange business.

The team is responsible for management of Deutsche Bank’s premier FX trading platforms providing execution, market data and post-trade services to external and internal clients.
