Role description

We are looking for an experienced Java Developer to join a fast-moving delivery team building a new regulatory reporting platform for a global financial services firm.

This is a key build focused on MiFID II transaction reporting, trade transparency, and instrument data - replacing a legacy system with a cloud-native microservices architecture (Java 17, Spring Boot, AWS, CI/CD).

You'd be working closely with BAs, compliance SMEs, and QAs to deliver genuinely business-critical features.

Key highlights

  • Greenfield build - no legacy codebase
  • Cloud-native tech stack (Java, Spring Boot, AWS, GitHub Actions, Jenkins)
  • Regulatory focus (MiFID II, EMIR, SFTR, etc.)

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement scalable, cloud-native backend components using Java and Spring Boot
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver features supporting transaction reporting, pre/post-trade transparency, and venue/instrument data flows
  • Translate regulatory requirements into robust, auditable technical solutions
  • Participate in Agile ceremonies and contribute to design, development, testing, and documentation
  • Write unit, integration, and functional tests; support automated test pipelines
  • Deploy services in AWS and contribute to CI/CD pipeline development

Requirements

  • 5+ years of Java development experience, with strong proficiency in Spring Boot
  • Solid understanding of microservices architecture and RESTful API design
  • Experience deploying to and developing in AWS or other public cloud environments
  • Familiarity with Agile development practices and tools (e.g., Jira, Git, Jenkins)
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work closely with non-technical stakeholders
  • Previous experience in capital markets, especially transaction reporting, is highly desirable

Nice to have

  • Knowledge of MiFID II, EMIR, SFTR, or other regulatory reporting regimes
  • Experience with test automation frameworks (e.g., Playwright, TypeScript, BDD)
  • Exposure to MarkLogic or similar document databases
