We are seeking a talented .Net Application Developer to join our dynamic Capital Market Department!
As an Application Developer, you will be responsible for developing features within a specific Delivery Team. You will work autonomously and follow a continuous improvement approach, ensuring high-quality code that adheres to our design, norms, and standards. You will be accountable for delivering solutions that meet both functional and non-functional requirements, taking into account the principles of Agile development.
Capital Markets IT involves technology solutions and systems used in financial markets for trading, investment, and related activities. This includes electronic trading platforms, risk management systems, market risk, counterparty risk, algorithmic trading, data analytics, and Regulatory measures. The use of advanced technologies like API’s, artificial intelligence and cloud solutions are also becoming increasingly prevalent in capital markets to enhance efficiency and decision-making processes.
We are starting the decommissioning of our Kondor Plus trading platform for our Treasury business to transfer this activity to our main front office target platform (Orchestrade or OT). Orchestrade is already implemented for other asset classes.
The DeKOT project (decommissioning of Kondor+ to migrate into Orchestrade) will migrate our worldwide cross asset treasury platform (all products) booked in several instances of Kondor Plus. We are creating a team in Singapore to take in charge some part of the project (e.g. Inbound and outbound flows of the platform for various systems or modules, OT API and format such as Json, Protobuf, CIBML…). Performance and latency of those interfaces will be key for the success of the project.
With strong interactions with our Head office team, the .net developer would put in place the first foundations of a development team based in Asia in Singapore. The developer joins a future team of Front Office developers that will grow and will be key in the future for our technology hub in Singapore. The team will be fully allocated to this project and will be part of a multi sites project team.
