Location: London

mthree is hiring a Full Stack Developer to work with a tier-one global investment bank in London. You'll join the PnL Control group within Finance Technology, working on an accounting system that produces PnL and Balance Sheet reporting for secured funding transactions.

The system is built in Java and Scala on Spark. Alongside the engineering, the work involves digging into data to understand how secured funding products such as repos and stock loan are accounted for, so the team is looking for someone who is happy working across several technology stacks and getting into the business detail.

You'll build and develop the accounting and reporting platform used by PnL controllers. Working with local and global project managers, colleagues and internal Finance clients, you'll be involved in every stage of the development lifecycle, from analysis through to delivery.

• Build the accounting system for PnL and Balance Sheet reporting on secured funding transactions, using Java and Scala on Spark
• Analyse the underlying data to understand the accounting treatment of products such as repos and stock loan
• Develop reporting for the PnL Control team
• Work closely with project managers and Finance stakeholders, locally and globally, across the full development lifecycle
• Contribute across the stack, picking up different technologies as the problem requires

• Hands-on coding in Java, Scala and/or Python
• Strong knowledge of Spark and object-oriented software development
• Exposure to UI technologies, ideally WPF and Angular
• Good understanding of databases and Unix
• Good understanding of Git or similar version control tools
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills
• An interest in finance, the business and data analysis
• Understanding of Agile, Dev Ops and software engineering principles
• Scripting knowledge, e.g. Python, Shell or Perl

This role is through mthree's Expert programme. You'll be employed directly by mthree and deployed full time with one client, working as part of their team on their projects. Throughout the assignment you'll have ongoing support from mthree, and where applicable there is a clear route to permanent employment with the client.
