Job Description
I am working with a leading global financial institution who are on the lookout for a Software Engineer to join their Financial Engineering (FEng) team — a specialist division building cutting-edge, in-house financial models and analytics.
This role plays a key part in a strategic integration of model library (Quark) with the Murex platform, addressing performance gaps in vendor-supplied models. You’ll be part of an expert team re-architecting Quark to be cross-platform, stateless, and thread-safe while maintaining speed, scalability, and usability within Excel.
Key Responsibilities:
- Enhance and re-engineer the Quark library for integration with Murex Flex API
- Drive migration of Quark from Windows to a platform-independent architecture
- Support multi-threading, statelessness, and high performance
- Collaborate closely with financial engineers to accelerate project delivery
- Strong hands-on experience in C++ development
- Familiarity with cross-platform build systems (e.g. CMake)
- Ability to resolve complex architectural challenges
- Experience in large-scale C++ codebases and/or quant/investment banking (a plus)
- Exposure to Azure or cloud environments is beneficial
