Salary: Up to £110,000 + 25% Performance Bonus + 13.5k Partnership Bonus + Excellent Benefits

About the role: I'm currently supporting a leading global investment firm in hiring a Senior Developer to join their Front Office Investment Technology team. This is a fantastic opportunity to work on a strategic, multi-year programme building a centralised Real-Time Investment Data platform used by Portfolio Managers, Traders and Quant teams. The role is focused on integrating vendor market data platforms, delivering scalable data services, and providing a consistent investment data capability across the business.

Requirements:

• Python development experience
• Experience building investment or market data platforms within Financial Services
• AWS cloud experience (Lambda, S3, serverless, integrations)
• Knowledge of real-time data, time-series data, and event-driven systems
• Experience integrating vendor platforms such as Bloomberg, Refinitiv, MarketAxess or similar
• Strong understanding of Front Office investment data, including market data, pricing, orders, positions and portfolios.

This is an integration-focused engineering role rather than a greenfield software development position, making it ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex investment data challenges, working closely with Front Office stakeholders, and delivering scalable cloud-based data solutions.
