Mission
We are building the future of data and reporting for financial markets, and we are taking all industry stakeholders with us.
We have secured some high-profile client including top-tier investment banks, law firms and standard-setting bodies.
What you'll do day to day
- You will join a rapidly expanding team helping our clients to address complex data modelling challenges for financial products, financial transactions, and associated regulatory reporting obligations

- Model business products and events using our Rune open-source modelling language, and build client solutions using our Rosetta SDK, tools and code generators
- Own release planning and management including creating release artefacts and documentation, representing changes with stakeholders, delivering changes into production
- Gain proficiency in release management tools and technologies used by the organisation
- Enable clients to deploy solutions quickly by troubleshooting and solving their adoption challenges
- Interact with clients and trade associations and participate in industry working groups
- Liaise with clients and team members to ensure a well coordinated development process across client projects
- Provide regular updates to colleagues and stakeholders on status and issues.
What we're looking for

- An analytical mind with strong attention to detail
- Strong communication and presentation skills; ability to write clearly and concisely
- Proactivity and a genuine desire for taking ownership
- Ability to manage expectations and resolve conflicts
- Experience in software engineering using Java
- Exposure to the software engineering processes, including release, deployment and testing, and methodologies (eg Agile and DevOps)
- Familiarity with development tools, code repositories and continuous integration
- Graduate degree in a business or STEM subject.
Extra things we'd love to see (non-essential)
- Exposure to financial products and their transaction lifecycle
- Experience in a data modelling, data engineering, quant or business analysis role (with a strong data focus in each case) in the financial markets domain
- Understand branching and merging best practices and familiarity with version control systems
- Knowledge of deployment and infrastructure technologies (e.g. cloud platforms, containers)
- Experience building a system that is highly scalable, available and secure
- Relevant post-graduate qualification.
Our Technology
Rosetta is a language and SDK to build data models. With Rosetta we can define classic entity-relationships, but its power lies in its rich syntax for validation rules, data bindings and map-reduce abstractions that allows to build an end-to-end data processing pipeline. So that clients can use Rosetta with their language of choice, we can automatically code generate into Java or Python or Scala or GoLang or Javascript or … well you get the idea.
Our cloud-native platform is being used by financial institutions to embed these open-source data models into their own production reporting systems. Key to compliance applications is to give transparency to users over their data pipelines. That means baking in processing transparency into our infrastructure from day one and giving users (and ourselves!) an intuitive UI to drill into what is happening at every stage of the pipeline.
Our Approach to Serving Clients
Preferring flexibility, we favour best-in-class technologies - the right tools for the right job. This means we try to keep our work flexible, too.
We love helping our clients develop solutions to make the post trade eco-system more efficient. Our toolkit helps standardise data and functions to simplify everyday tasks that cause our clients problems. Our market knowledge and intellectual curiosity is operating at the cutting edge of financial services innovation.
We commit to driving innovation in the industry and have participated in the FCA Tech Sprint (Nov 2017), the Accenture Innovation Lab (2018), the ING Fintech Village (2018) and Allen & Overy’s Fuse (2018-2020). We also sat on the judging panel at the Barclays #DerivHack (Nov 2018 and 2019) and won the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) Innovation Hub G20 TechSprint (2020).

Note on flexible working

During the pandemic, the team has operated fully virtually and has been just as productive in person or remotely.
Reporting Audit
First, map your data into CDM...
We have it covered it. All it takes is a +/- 2-day immersion workshop with your tech team to build your mappings.
As a by-product, you get a ready-to-use API to convert all your trade data
… And access your audit results on-line…
Once your trade data have been mapped, our reporting engine compares its output to your reports and analyses any discrepancy.
Analysis is developed within 6 weeks and results published into a web application.
… Through a powerful user interface
Forget static audit reports that end-up on a shelf.
Our reporting engine is available on-demand to reconcile your reporting process end-to-end and down to single trade flow, through a fully interactive interface.

CDM Integration
We do the data mappings for you…
Just extract transaction data from your booking, reporting or any other systems, we handle the rest.
We build mappings in immersion with your tech team, as a packaged +/- 2-day workshop that includes valuable CDM training – and is fun (yes, really)!
… And deliver you a packaged output…
Forget data mapping spreadsheets and forget hard-coded translation buried deep into your code base.
What you get is a transparent, maintainable CDM translation dictionary, automatically packaged into an API to translate your internal trade messages.
… Which you can start using right away
Start using the API for testing right away. For production deployment, we offer a range of hosting options that adapt to your technology stack.
The application grows with you. Just edit your dictionary to connect more and more systems to CDM.

Model-Driven Regulation
Bring-on the regulatory text…
Can be anything in your existing corpus, as long as it’s digestible and relatively self-contained.
The target is to deconstruct that text and reconstruct a model of the regulation in +/- 2 days.
… We’ll handle the rest…
Our team of regulatory and engineering experts works in immersion with you and guide the process from start to finish.
Our promise: some executable code running by the end of the workshop, delivered to you and ready for demonstration.
… And you’re ready to develop rules on your own
All it takes is a cross-functional team, ideally all-encompassing from policy to technology, who is open to a fresh (and fun!) approach.
The buck doesn’t stop there. Your team is now empowered to carry that project forward inside your organisation.

Data Modelling
Take an existing data pipeline of any form…
Just choose among your existing business processes to experiment a model-driven approach in +/- 2 days.
We can start from any kind of artefact, from XML messages down to Excel or even PDF documents.
… To demonstrate the model-driven approach…
Our team of data engineering experts works in immersion with you and guide the process from start to finish.
Our promise: some executable data pipeline running based on your model by the end of the workshop.
… Which you can deploy within your organisation
All it takes is a cross-functional team of developers and non-developers, who is open to a fresh (and fun!) approach.
The buck doesn’t stop there. That team is now empowered to carry that project forward and build model-based pipelines for your organisation.
