The stack is built on Scala, with RDF, SPARQL and Big Data technologies such as Apache Hadoop, and all development follows Agile. Scala is preferred, but strong Java developers who want to learn Scala will also be considered.

The Role

This is a development-focused role. You’ll analyse business and technical requirements, then design and build critical components of the reference data technology stack, owning your work through every phase of the software development lifecycle. The team wants a self-starter who works well with others and enjoys picking up new technologies.

  5. Contribute to key regulatory programmes within the bank
  6. Take ownership of high-level tasks and resolve the detail
  7. Support the operational side of running a software stack

Required Experience

  1. Strong Scala or Java development skills, with Java candidates willing to learn Scala
  2. Strong SQL skills, with practical experience of at least one RDBMS
  3. Strong understanding of software build and release management, using at least one build tool such as ANT
  4. Good understanding of unit testing
  5. Familiarity with development patterns
  6. Familiarity with Big Data technologies such as Apache Hadoop
  7. An understanding of the operational aspects of managing a software stack
  8. A proactive approach and good communication skills

Desirable Experience

  1. Familiarity with RDF and SPARQL
  2. Knowledge of the client or product reference data domain
  3. Exposure to functional programming, for candidates without Scala experience
