Job Details

Help our trading business build a Front Office risk calculation platform, using the latest cloud-based technologies and distributed stream techniques.

Our trading technology division have embarked upon a greenfield programme which will deliver a new risk platform, capable of providing real-time as well as end of day risk calculations across all asset classes.

We’re building this platform in-house, with a team of dedicated and highly skilled Engineers.

You will be working with the latest technologies including Google Cloud, Docker and Kubernetes and interfacing directly with the business.

Your skill set will include core Java. It would be useful if you have also worked with Scala and Python although this isn’t essential.

Our development environment is Linux, and core skills in this environment are a key part of the role. Further, prior experience working with Cloud platforms (AWS, Google, Azure), Containers, Docker, and Kubernetes would also be an advantage.

We’re building a platform which will be used by our primary revenue generators. If you have worked in a similar environment that would be useful, but again this isn’t essential.

We’re looking for Engineers with a passion for technology and a desire to build systems that will revolutionise our business. If that sounds like you, we look forward to hearing from you. 

The Corporate Operations Group brings together specialist support services in 
Digital Transformation & Data, Technology, Market Operations, Human Resources, Business Services, Business Improvement & Strategy, Brand & Marketing and the Macquarie Group Foundation

Company

Working at Macquarie

We believe in providing a positive environment for all our staff that is innovative and inspiring. For our female staff, Macquarie’s senior leaders are actively involved in increasing the representation of females in management positions.  In June 2014, we launched a mentoring programme for females, with the following two objectives:

  • Address female retention rates at Senior Manager level and improve our diverse pipeline of talent;
  • Engage female Senior Managers by providing tools and support around their personal development;

The programme pairs up Senior Managers with Directors, who meet on a monthly basis, and are supported by active group sessions (bi-monthly) with an external facilitator.

We select some of the brightest minds to help us in solving complex challenges for our clients.  We recognise that recruiting talent from varied backgrounds is essential to improving our understanding of the marketplace, and enhancing creativity and problem-solving capabilities in our businesses.

Because of this, our commitment to you is to create a diverse and inclusive workplace regardless of age, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity or cultural background.

We make this commitment not only because it is the right thing to do but it opens up a world of opportunity, securing the future of our people, our success and our business
