JOB DESCRIPTION:

 

The Opportunity Can You Build and Command a Cloud Supercomputer
Want to run one of the largest highperformance computing grids in the financial industry Are you driven by the challenge of orchestrating trillions of calculations across thousands of cloud cores to price the firms entire trading book in minutes not ours Do you want to build the massivescale valuation engine that powers Citis nextgeneration risk platform
Citi is seeking a visionary Cloud HPC Engineer to lead the development and operation of our global pricing grid This is the engine room of our risk system You will be responsible for deploying scaling and optimizing the computational factory that runs our most complex pricing models at an unprecedented scale on public cloud platforms like AWS and Google Cloud Platform

Your Role and Impact
As the lead for the Pricing Engine you are the master of massivescale computation You will take the sophisticated pricing models developed by our top quants and operationalize them on a colossal grid Your primary mission is to ensure that millions of trades can be revalued against thousands of historical market scenarios with extreme speed efficiency and rocksolid stability
Your impact is at the core of our risk valuation capability You will architect the system that answers the most fundamental question in risk What is it worth right now under this scenario The performance and reliability of the platform you build will directly determine the firms ability to manage risk and meet its most critical regulatory obligations
