Core Java Developer - Credit Trading Systems

Job ID: 25-08844
Job Title: Core Java Developer - Credit Trading Systems
Location: New York, NY 10036 (Remote - contractor can go into office if interested)
Duration: 6 months
Contract Type: W2 only
Pay Rate: $103.45/hour
 
Business Objective:
  • We are building the Credit Trader Workstation (CTW), a central platform for all Credit Trading activities. Currently, multiple systems are in place across US and Canadian desks. The goal is to simplify and integrate everything into a single, streamlined platform.
  • Integration with DSTS is complete; the next key initiative is integrating Bloomberg TOMS, with a focus on pricing components and an upcoming build of an RFQ (Request for Quote) engine and auto-hedging system.
 
Role Overview:
  • This is a server-side, low-latency, Core Java development role.
  • The integration work is largely complete, and we are now focused on expanding the development of new functionality.
  • This is both a backfill and a net new role, with a significant focus on building the RFQ engine from scratch.
 
Responsibilities:
  • Core Java server-side development focused on low-latency data structures
  • Work closely with the Fixed Income (FI) trading teams to understand workflows, specifically related to pricing
  • Build and enhance systems dealing with Preferred Stocks, Corporate Bonds, Munis, Investment Grade products, TIPS, REITs, Money Market Funds, and Credit Trading instruments
  • Develop and integrate a net new RFQ engine and auto-hedging system
  • Contribute to pricing components relayed to external systems
  • Day 1 contributions expected in Core Java unit testing, code pipelines, builds, and deployment processes
  • Participate in a highly technical, fast-paced environment and quickly ramp up on Fixed Income concepts and platform-specific integrations
 
Must Have Requirements:
  • 3-5 years - strong Core Java development experience, particularly on server-side, low-latency systems
  • Hands-on experience with data structures and scalable, high-performance platforms
  • Strong understanding of full software development lifecycle including unit testing, CI/CD pipelines, and deployment
  • Ability to pick up complex concepts quickly with minimal supervision – teachable
 
Nice To Haves:
  • Exposure to Capital Markets (CM) or Fixed Income (FI) concepts (coupon rate, fixed rate coupons, bond pricing) is a strong plus but not required
  • Familiarity with Fixed Income instruments is a plus (not quant pricing, but general bond pricing knowledge)
 
Education:
  • Post secondary degree - Bachelors in Computer Science or Financial Engineering
