Job description
Our client, a
leading global investment bank is scaling its Quantitative Investment
Strategies trading platform.
The opportunity is
to significantly accelerate platform delivery. Multiple teams are working
across the platform simultaneously : quant developers, platform engineers,
infrastructure, IT and business and the goal is to make that collaboration more
efficient, more coherent and faster.
The business has strong momentum and is looking for the right person to connect
the dots between these teams and turn that momentum into consistent,
demonstrable delivery.
This role exists to
do exactly that.
This position is open in London, 3 days on-site/week, long-term commitment.
Responsibilities :
- Own delivery coordination
across interdependent teams (quant developers, platform engineers,
infrastructure, IT and business stakeholders) with no direct line
authority
- Define and enforce what
"done" actually means with each engineering team before anything
is called delivered
- Sort out the test
environments ensuring nothing is pushed forward without proper end-to-end
validation
- Track every in-flight
workstream across the QIS platform scope
- Demonstrate working software
on a week-to-week basis to senior stakeholders
- Identify cross-team
dependencies early and drive resolution before they become programme
blockers
- Translate technical
constraints and delivery risks into clear, honest narratives for
front-office sponsors including heads of QIS trading, QIS structuring and
the head of Equities
Requirements
- A hands-on implementation or
engineering background
- Proven delivery of trading
platforms or complex technical software programmes
- Demonstrated ability to
coordinate and push delivery across multiple teams without line authority
- Real agile
- Exposure to Python-heavy
environments, distributed systems, KDB
