Job Details
Location: Fully Remote (UK-based) Contract: 12 months (likely extension) Industry: Investment Banking / FX E-Trading
Senior Java EFX Platform Developer
We're partnering with a leading investment bank on a major greenfield build – a brand‑new, in‑house FX E‑Trading platform. This multi‑year programme is at an early stage, offering the chance to help shape architecture, performance, and design from the ground up.
Join a team of experienced technologists delivering a modern, low‑latency trading environment – all while working fully remotely from anywhere in the UK.
Why This Role Stands Out
* 💻 Fully Remote (UK) – No commute, no relocation; collaborate virtually with a high‑calibre global team.
* 🕓 12‑Month Initial Contract – Long‑term engagement with strong potential for extension.
* 🚀 Greenfield Build – Influence architecture, design, and key technical decisions from the outset.
* ⚙️ High‑Performance Systems – Develop low‑latency, multi‑threaded Java components in a front‑office trading environment.
The Role
As a Senior Java Developer, you'll design, develop, and optimise core components of a next‑generation FX E‑Trading platform, including:
* Pricing and distribution
* Auto‑hedging
* Market intelligence and reporting
* Integration with existing trading infrastructure
You’ll collaborate closely with other senior developers, architects, and business stakeholders in a highly agile and delivery‑focused environment.
Key Skills & Experience
* 10+ years' experience as a Java Developer in investment banking
* 4+ years' experience working on FX Cash, Options, or E‑Trading systems
* Strong expertise in:
o Core Java / Server‑Side Java
o Low‑latency, multi‑threaded programming
o SQL and data modelling
o Agile object‑oriented design principles
* Solid knowledge of FX cash products
* Excellent communication and teamwork skills
Desirable
* Experience with real‑time pricing, risk, or order management systems
* Exposure to electronic trading and front‑office environments
If you’re an experienced Java developer seeking a long‑term remote contract and the chance to contribute to a high‑impact greenfield trading platform, we’d love to hear from you.
