WHY THIS ROLE IS IMPORTANT TO US    

We are looking for a Lead Software Engineer to join the Transactions product area and contribute to business-critical functionality used by our clients in their daily investment operations.

You will work as part of an experienced engineering team, contributing to backend development, component design, performance, reliability and maintainability. The work is technically interesting because it combines complex business logic, long-lived enterprise software and the need to keep improving how we build and deliver functionality.

Most of the current product logic is written in APL, while we are increasing our use of C#/.NET in new development, integrations, cloud enablement, and platform modernization. You do not need prior APL experience. We will provide training and support and we are looking for someone who is curious enough to learn what is needed while bringing strong engineering practices from C#/.NET.

You will work with experienced engineers across locations and have room to influence how we build, modernize and evolve the product.

 WHAT YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR  

As a Lead Software Engineer, you will help the team build reliable, maintainable and well-tested backend solutions. In practice, you will:

• Lead end-to-end design, implement, test and maintain backend functionality using APL and, where relevant, C#/.NET
• Drive technical discussions and decision-making aligned with long-term business goals
• Architect scalable, secure  and high-performance solutions
• Contribute to code quality, performance and long-term maintainability
• Mentor and guide a team of engineers through code reviews, technical planning, and agile practices
• Ensure system reliability through unit testing, integration testing and CI/CD pipelines
• Work closely with product managers, engineers and other stakeholders to understand requirements and deliver client-relevant functionality
• Investigate technical issues, performance bottlenecks and bugs and help design sustainable solutions
• Share knowledge with colleagues and contribute to technical discussions within the team

WHAT WE VALUE

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, information technology, or a related field  
• 7+ years of hands-on experience with C# and .NET technologies
• Expert knowledge of C#, .NET Core/Framework and backend development
• Good understanding of object-oriented design, clean code, APIs, and integration patterns
• Experience with automated testing, code reviews, CI/CD, and Git-based workflows
• Ability to work with complex business logic and collaborate with both technical and non-technical colleagues
• Interest in learning APL. Prior APL experience is not required
• Experience with Azure or cloud-based development is an advantage, but not a prerequisite

NICE-TO-HAVE 

• Experience from fintech, financial services or another regulated industry
• Exposure to functional, array-oriented or vector-based programming languages
• Experience with Azure services or cloud-based development
• Experience mentoring other engineers or taking ownership of a component
