The manager oversees the full software development lifecycle, from system design and code review to performance profiling and production release. Key responsibilities include defining technical architectures for analytics platforms, migrating legacy components, and bridging the gap between quant research prototypes and robust production code. The role requires expert-level proficiency in Java, Spring Boot, Redis, Solace, Kafka, and various databases. Candidates must possess a strong foundation in numerical methods, linear algebra, and financial mathematics to solve complex problems within the synthetic prime brokerage and Delta One product space.

  • Architect and write production-grade code for low-latency, high-performance equity swap and synthetic prime applications.
  • Build position management and trade lifecycle systems for Delta One products including swaps, futures, and forwards.
  • Own the full software development lifecycle including system design, performance profiling, and production releases.
  • Define technical architecture for analytics platforms, including service boundaries, data contracts, and API designs.
  • Lead the migration of legacy components to modern, maintainable architectures without disrupting production operations.
  • Establish engineering standards such as code review cultures, testing frameworks, and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Translate business requirements from trading desks and risk management into well-scoped engineering deliverables.
  • Bridge the gap between quant research prototypes and robust, testable production code.

What we're looking for

  • 8+ years of experience in equity finance, synthetic prime brokerage, or Delta One products.
  • 10+ years of expert-level experience with Java, Spring Boot, and distributed cache (Redis) for large-scale trading applications.
  • Deep understanding of Prime brokerage and Delta One products including equity swaps, futures, forwards, TRS, and ETF mechanics.
  • Demonstrated ability to write, review, and take full ownership of production-grade code.
  • Strong foundation in numerical methods, linear algebra, and financial mathematics.
  • Proficiency with technologies including Redis, Solace, Kafka, and distributed processing.
  • Experience with equity swaps trading application build out or integration with vendor platforms like Swap One or Nuvo Prime (preferred).
