Senior Java EFX Low Latency Platform Engineer
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, giving you the opportunity to shape architecture, performance, and design from the ground up.
Location: Fully Remote (UK‑based)
Contract: 12 months (likely extension)
Industry: Investment Banking / FX E‑Trading
Why This Role Stands Out
* Fully Remote (UK) – no commute or relocation.
* 12‑Month Initial Contract – long‑term engagement with strong potential for extension.
* Greenfield Build – influence architecture, design, and 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 will 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 will 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
* Core Java / Server‑Side Java, low‑latency, multi‑threaded programming, SQL and data modelling, 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.
