About the Client:Â We are partnering with a prominent global financial services firm with a strong footprint in the Asian equities market. They maintain a complex environment of in-house and vendor systems supporting their trading and research operations. The engineering culture here is pragmatic and business-aligned, focusing on reliable data flow and efficient trade processing.
Â
The Role & Landscape:Â This is a unique, hybrid vacancy where the hiring manager is open to either a technically hands-on Business Analyst or a Systems Developer with strong business acumen.
Design and develop interfaces connecting middle-office systems and related back-office applications.
Take ownership of critical static data systems (Bloomberg/Reuters), SQL Server databases, and complex Excel-based tools used daily by the Equity Middle Office and Research teams.
Act as the primary technical point of contact, providing second-line support and troubleshooting operational issues.
Conduct feasibility studies for new system enhancements and present recommendations directly to the business.
Automate deployment processes and collaborate with regional offices on IT changes.
Note: This role may require occasional early-shift support.
Â
What We Are Looking For:
A strong foundation in SQL and VBA is mandatory.
For developer profiles, you must be comfortable getting hands-on with databases, SSIS, and Linux batch jobs.
For BA profiles, you need the technical depth to understand system architectures, write complex SQL queries, and manage technical delivery.
A solid understanding of the trade lifecycle within investment banking or securities trading (3+ years preferred).
Familiarity with Python, AWS, or vendor systems like Fidessa, Ullink, or Omgeo CTM is a strong advantage.
Â
Why Apply To This Role: This is an excellent opportunity to embed yourself deeply within the equities business flow. You won't just be taking tickets; you'll be actively advising the business and building the tools that research and middle-office teams rely on daily. It’s a high-visibility role that rewards a mix of technical grit and strong communication.
