Lead UI Developer - Front Office Trading Platform | London
I’m currently working on a Senior UI engineering opportunity within a global financial markets environment, building a next-generation trading platform used by Sales, Trading, and institutional clients.
This is a hands-on technical leadership role, ideal for someone who enjoys working at the intersection of front-end architecture, real-time data, and capital markets.
What you’ll be working with:
- WebSockets / Server-Sent Events
- High-performance data-heavy UIs and trading blotters
- Market data, pricing, RFQ, order entry and trade capture
- Front-end architecture, reusable components and design systems
- Performance optimisation and low-latency rendering
- Automated testing, CI/CD and observability
- Secure UI development within a highly regulated environment
The role would suit someone with experience across:
- Front Office / Trading technology
- Real-time financial applications
- Market data, pricing or execution workflows
- High-performance React/TypeScript applications
- Reactive programming / RxJS
- Capital Markets - FX, Rates, Credit, Equities or Commodities
You’ll work closely with Product, UX, Quant, Pricing, Execution and Risk teams, while helping shape the architecture and technical direction of the platform.
