Your role in the team
As part of our vision and long term strategy we are creating new team focused around one of our most critical system, responsible for streaming prices and all critical data to our customers across all platforms. This is very challenging area and requires a lot of determination and dedication. As a highly experienced Java Developer, the role will give you the chance to work with streaming technologies. From day one you will be developing high volume, high performance services where security, reliability, and accuracy are paramount. You will be enthusiastic about making contributions that help the team meet the challenges we face, delivering high-quality software within a complex business domain. The role will need you to draw on your experience in approaches such as Continuous Delivery and understand how and when to use TDD, BDD and DDD to deliver high quality software that accurately represents the business domain. As part of this new team you will have a chance to renovate and reshape the way we are currently working with streaming technologies.
What You’ll Do
Who We’re Looking For
You’re curious about things like the client experience, the rapid developments in tech, and the complex world of fintech regulation. You’re also a confident, creative thinker with a knack for innovating. We know that you know every problem has a solution. Here, you can try new ideas, and lead the way in creating inspiring experiences for our clients and everyone around you. We don’t fit the corporate stereotype. If you want to work for a traditional, suit-and-tie corporate that just gives you a pay cheque at the end of the month, we might not be for you. But, if you have that IG Group energy and you can stand behind what we believe in, let’s raise the bar together.
What You’ll Need For This Role
Preferred Qualifications:
How You’ll Grow
When you join IG Group, we want you to have more than a job – we want you to have a career. And you can. If you spot an opportunity, we want you to chase it. Stretch yourself, challenge your self-beliefs and go for the things you dream of. With internal and external learning opportunities, and the tools to help you skyrocket to success, we’ll support you all the way. And these opportunities truly are endless because we have some bold targets. We plan to expand our global presence, increase revenue growth, and ultimately deliver the world’s best trading experience. We’d love to have you along for the ride
The perks
Where you’ll work
We follow a hybrid working model; we reckon it’s the best of both worlds. This model also feeds into our secret ingredients for innovation: diversity, flexibility, and close connection. Plus, you’ll be welcomed into a diverse and inclusive workforce with a lot of creative energy. Ask our employees what their favourite thing is about working at IG, and you’ll hear an echo of ‘our culture’! That’s because you can come to work as your authentic self. The things that make you, you – like your ethnicity, sexual orientation, faith, age, gender identity/expression or physical capacity – can bring a fresh perspective or new skill to our business. That’s why we welcome people from various walks of life; and anyone who wants to help us realise our vision and strategy. So, if you’re keen to connect with our values, and lead the charge on innovation, you know what to do.
