Software Developer

Job description

Leading Investment Bank - Software Developer - Finance Technology

We’re hiring a Software Developer to join a Greenfield, next-generation Regulatory Technology platform within a leading global investment bank. This role sits within the Finance Technology – Regulatory Reporting organisation, focused on building and evolving a critical regulatory reporting platform used globally.

While the platform is built around Axiom, prior Axiom experience is not required. We’re looking for strong engineers who are keen to learn a new, specialist technology and grow their skillset within a complex, high-impact environment. Full training on Axiom will be provided.

You’ll work closely with international engineering teams, contributing to platform development, automation, and infrastructure, while helping drive modern engineering practices across a mission-critical system.

What You’ll Do

• Build and support a Greenfield, next-generation regulatory reporting platform
• Develop and maintain backend services, tooling, and automation supporting regulatory processing
• Implement platform upgrades, releases, and security patches across global environments
• Coordinate testing cycles with engineering and delivery teams
• Expand CI/CD, test-driven development, and release automation practices
• Contribute to architectural decisions, standardisation, and platform design
• Support a high-availability, business-critical regulatory reporting system

Skills & Experience

• 2–5 years’ experience as a Software Developer or Engineer
• Strong Python development skills
• Solid Linux / Shell scripting experience
• Database development experience (Sybase or other relational databases)
• Understanding of application infrastructure and system architecture
• Experience designing and building web-based applications
• Background working in large-scale, enterprise environments

Nice to Have

• Interest in regulatory systems, financial platforms, or enterprise technology
• Exposure to CI/CD tooling (e.g. Jenkins) and Agile delivery methodologies
• Strong SQL and ETL knowledge
• Experience with database performance analysis and tuning
• Axiom experience is a plus, but not essential – full training provided

This is an excellent opportunity for engineers looking to learn a niche, in-demand technology, work on a next-generation platform, and develop their career within one of the world’s leading investment banks.
