This is an exciting opportunity for a Scala/Java developer to join the PBSFT Technology team at a time when we are performing a significant renovation of our technology environment, building a new consolidated system for Trade Capture and Post-trade processing across all types of Securities Finance Transactions (Repo, Sec Lending, Buy sell backs etc).

3. To create mission-critical GUI that traders rely on to book or view Securities Financing transactions.

The new system will be implemented using an MS common technical platform and integrated with other pre-existing components that exist within the broader ecosystem. The ideal candidate will be proficient in Scala and/or Java and will be familiar with techniques and concepts related to building high quality software in an Agile fashion, including automated testing, tooling and DevOps tools/concepts.
