Front Office Platform Engineer - Python (FastAPI / Pydantic)


Location: London

Salary: Up to £140,000 + Bonus


Elevate Your Career in Investment Management Tech

Are you an experienced Software Engineer with a passion for Python and a knack for creating cutting-edge technology? This role offers a unique blend of technical challenge and collaboration with some of the brightest minds in investment management.


Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Competitive Compensation: Earn up to £140,000 annually, plus a performance-based bonus.
  • Hybrid Work Environment: Enjoy the flexibility of working from home while still engaging with a dynamic office environment.
  • Innovative Projects: Be at the forefront of designing, architecting, and developing in-house Portfolio Management and Trading technology.
  • Collaborative Culture: Work closely with Portfolio Managers, Researchers, and Quants to gather requirements and build state-of-the-art Front Office technology.


What You Bring to the Table:

  • Expertise in Python (FastAPI): Demonstrated experience in software engineering using Python within the Investment Management or Investment Banking industry is essential.
  • Stakeholder Engagement: Proven ability to work directly with non-technical business stakeholders to understand and translate their needs into technical solutions.
  • Desirable Skills: Experience with front-end technologies like React and cloud platforms such as Azure will set you apart.


Your Role:

As a Front Office Platform Engineer, you will be instrumental in the design, architecture, and ongoing development of bespoke Portfolio Management and Trading systems. Your ability to collaborate effectively with Front Office desks, including Portfolio Managers, Researchers, and Quants, will be crucial in gathering requirements and building innovative in-house technology solutions.


This role is perfect for a seasoned Software Engineer looking to leverage their Python expertise in a high-impact, rewarding environment. If you are driven by technical excellence and thrive in collaborative settings, this position offers a compelling next step in your career.


Take the Next Step:

If this sounds like the perfect fit for your skills and career aspirations, consider this role as your next professional milestone.
