Role Overview
The Global Analytics team builds and maintains the Price Discovery platform used by the broking desks globally to generate, calculate, and distribute market data to clients. Our work spans Fixed Income, Interest Rate Derivatives, FX Derivatives, Energy, and Commodities.
Much of the day-to-day centres on an in-house Excel-like application, backed by C++ and C# libraries, where broking screens are developed and maintained. As a junior member of the team, you will have experienced colleagues around you to guide you through the financial domain and the platform.
Role Responsibilities
Create, enhance, and support broking screens across multiple asset classes
Support existing systems and data pipelines, fix production issues, and identify where things can be improved
Learn how financial markets operate from the screens, the broking desks, and colleagues
Own and drive projects to completion, delivering high-quality results
Contribute to moving analytics out of screen cells into reusable library functions and documenting pricing logic
Contribute to building micro-services that translate business requirements into deployable components
Contribute to optimising and streamlining how screens are developed and deployed
Contribute to improving search and data retrieval capabilities to support data sales requirements
Leverage AI tools and modern development workflows to accelerate your own work and the team's output
A pure research or quant modelling position. You will learn financial concepts, but the day-to-day is engineering
A role where every task comes with a detailed specification. You will often need to figure out the "how" yourself
A passive role, as we need someone who looks for problems to solve, not someone who waits to be told what to do
Experience / Competences
Essential
A degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or Physics
Demonstrable programming ability in at least one of C++, C#, or Python
A builder mindset: you would rather deliver something and iterate than wait for a perfect specification
Comfortable with ambiguity and with asking questions to move things forward
A self-starter who engages with tasks of all sizes, from quick fixes to larger project work
Genuine curiosity about how things work, in the financial markets and in the codebase
Clear, direct communication
Desired
Prior exposure to financial markets is a plus but not a requirement
Eagerness to adopt new technologies, including AI-powered tooling
