We are looking for new colleagues in Qualysoft teams for diverse projects providing continuous learning opportunities. Our common goal is to provide honesty, development and a stable background while getting to know the latest technologies. We are waiting for your application for the position below!
This position focuses on developing backend systems that act as data integration and feeding platforms within the fixed income risk management domain. The role involves handling very large data volumes, ensuring that calculation results and other critical information reach downstream systems reliably and on time. Key challenges include managing hundreds of gigabytes of data daily, integrating with multiple systems, ensuring resilience against errors, and maintaining strict service-level agreements. The work also covers the implementation of regulatory scenario calculations for market risk, where computational complexity is a central challenge.
Responsibilities:
- Develop IT systems covering various aspects of the business run by our Fixed Income division;
- Collaborate closely with business users and learn business concepts such as financial products and market structures;
- Participate in all stages of the IT system lifecycle: requirements gathering, refining user stories, solution design, coding, and supporting user queries;
- Work within a diverse technology landscape: Java, Scala, Python, data management systems, CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins);
- Solve a wide range of problems from high-throughput, resilient data integration solutions to regulatory scenario calculations requested by the Market Risk Department;
- Align tasks with your skillset, interests, and team fit.
Requirements:
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills;
- Good command of English and solid communication abilities;
- Experience in developing data or computation-intensive backend applications (e.g., grid-based) is an advantage;
- OOP design skills and interest in Functional Programming concepts;
- Willingness to maintain and enhance existing code, including legacy systems;
- Strong Java or Scala knowledge, with readiness to pick up the other language if needed;
- Spring knowledge is an advantage, but eagerness to learn and work with in-house frameworks is essential;
- Experience with Git, Bitbucket, Jenkins, pull requests, JIRA, and Agile/Scrum is an advantage;
- Knowledge of financial products is an advantage;
- BSc or MSc in IT/Engineering or a related field is an advantage.
