- At minimum, 5+ years in a compiled language (C++, C#, Rust…) and Python development experience
- Expertise in credit products (Securitized, Convertible Bonds, Loans...)
- Hands-on experience with Intex, Monis or equivalent credit analytics platforms (Monis, Intex…)
- Demonstrated ability to design shared library components; clean APIs, extensibility, separation of concerns
- Track record of delivering strategic technical initiatives from start to finish
- Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal
- Great problem solver
What do we offer
- Greenfield build-out: you are shaping the credit analytics platform from the ground up
- Cross-asset scope: your framework decisions propagate across rates, credit and macro
- Direct impact: your code hits production daily and drives trading decisions
- Modern stack and tooling: C++ core, Python interface layer, fully cloud-native stack (AWS, Prefect, Coder, Kubernetes), automated CI/CD
- Small, elite team — high autonomy, rapid decision cycles, minimal bureaucracy
