The Company
Our client is a premier global quantitative and systematic investment manager. Renowned for their data-driven and scientific approach to investing, they operate across all liquid asset classes globally. This is a technology-first organization where data, research, and trading expertise converge to solve the most complex financial challenges.
The Role
We are seeking a highly motivated Fintech Software Engineer to join the firm's Hong Kong-based development team. This is a unique opportunity for a junior developer to step into a high-ownership role, acting as a primary technical partner for the Global Operations and Business Management teams.
You will not just be "writing code"; you will be designing and building the critical automation frameworks that ensure the firm’s operational accuracy and efficiency. This role offers a unique mix of greenfield development, process automation, and direct business interfacing.
Key Responsibilities
- Strategic Partnership: Act as the trusted technical partner for the Business Operations and Management teams, translating complex requirements into robust software solutions.
- Process Automation: Design, develop, and deploy tooling to automate trade bookings, data reconciliations, and internal financial controls.
- Platform Evolution: Contribute new features to the firm’s internal web application suite, enhancing functionality and UI/UX for global users.
- Data Engineering: Take ownership of data sources to create high-impact reports, dashboards, and automated monitoring tools.
- System Integrity: Maintain and enhance existing reconciliation processes, ensuring 100% data accuracy in a fast-paced, high-stakes environment.
Your Profile
- Experience: 2–3 years of professional software development experience (Junior candidates with high potential are encouraged).
- Tech Stack: Expert proficiency in Python is a must, specifically with Pandas and Numpy.
- Data Skills: Strong understanding of SQL and database management (Read/Write).
- Problem Solver: A "data-oriented" individual who enjoys troubleshooting complex issues and delivering high-quality, testable code.
- Communication: Excellent stakeholder management skills; able to explain technical concepts to business-focused teams.
- Education: Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related quantitative field.
- Nice-to-have: Prior experience in Financial Services or familiarity with AWS/Modern Cloud platforms.
Why Apply?
This is a rare chance for a junior developer to bypass the "cog-in-the-wheel" experience and take true ownership of a business function within a world-class quantitative fund. You will work in a collaborative, flat-structured environment where your contributions directly impact the firm’s operational success.
