Senior Scala Developer (Global Banking Technology)
A major international financial institution is executing a multi-year architecture modernisation of its global post-trade, back-office, and control platforms. The mission is to re-architect legacy middle-and-back-office engines into highly scalable, distributed functional architectures that guarantee absolute compliance with global regulatory standards (EMIR Refit, MiFID II, SFTR).
You will provide architectural leadership and hands-on functional engineering to modernise critical post-trade systems including settlements, confirmations, trade lifecycle processing, and risk controls.
Location: London / Bromley
Key Responsibilities

- Lead Regulatory Compliance Engineering: Drive system compliance and auditability across key regulatory change streams (EMIR, MiFID II, SFTR, CFTC).
- Establish Engineering Standards: Set technical strategy and governance across functional programming practices, streaming tech, cloud readiness, and observability.
