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.

Share knowledge with colleagues and contribute to technical discussions within the team
