This position will focus on a Private Credit buildout, with particular emphasis on equities and options, and on integrating with third-party platforms such as Murex and ION. The engineer will focus on delivering high-quality, scalable Java-based services and Kafka-based streaming solutions.

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and maintain Java-based services that support a real-time trade capture platform for our autocallable buildout
• Build and support Kafka-based streaming pipelines to process, normalize, and distribute trading and reference data to downstream systems (P&L, risk, reporting, and analytics).
• Collaborate closely with portfolio managers, traders, operations, and risk teams to understand requirements and translate them into robust technical solutions.
• Contribute to the architecture and design of low-latency, high-availability components, including multithreaded and distributed systems.
• Write clean, testable, and well-documented code, including **unit, integration, and regression tests**; participate in code reviews and design reviews.
• Monitor, troubleshoot, and resolve production issues related to trading workflows, data integrity, and system performance, including on-call rotation as needed.
• Work with DevOps/Platform teams to enhance CI/CD pipelines, deployment automation, and observability (logging, metrics, alerting).
• Participate in global team ceremonies (standups, planning, retrospectives) and contribute to continuous improvement of development processes and standards.

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.

• Strong knowledge and practical experience with Kafka (designing, building, and supporting streaming/real-time data pipelines).
• Functional exposure to the investment process, particularly equities, credit, futures, or products, is highly desirable.
• Solid understanding of object-oriented design, design patterns, and multithreading in distributed systems.
• Hands-on experience with unit testing and integration testing frameworks and best practices.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipeline (Jenkins) and DevOps tools/practices (e.g., Git, build tools, automated testing, deployment automation).
• Experience with SQL databases such as Postgres and SQLServer
• Comfort with modern IDEs and developer productivity tools; openness to using AI-assisted development tools and modern developer workflows.
• Proven ability to quickly analyze, troubleshoot, and resolve complex production and integration issues under time pressure.
• Highly detail-oriented, with strong ownership, accountability, and follow-through on deliverables.
