  • Analyse our clients' data pipelines to assist them integrating with our technology platform
  • Build and enhance industry data models and functional models for Securities, Derivatives, Commodities, Securities Finance and FX
  • Shape the future of the regulatory landscape by building and managing regulatory rules contributed by the industry
  • Be responsible for taking requirements through to delivery, working to implementation deadlines and presenting to industry working groups
What we're looking for
  • Strong financial product knowledge in at least one of the areas: Securities, Derivatives, Commodities, FX
  • Experience with regulatory reporting implementations
  • Client service experience
  • Strong communication and presentation skills
  • Proactivity and a genuine desire for taking ownership
  • An analytical mind with strong problem-solving capabilities
Extra things we'd love to see (non-essential)
  • Experience managing mission-critical technology projects
  • Experience and/or comfort working with different post trade messaging protocols (e.g. FpML, FIX)
  • Experience developing data models

Our Technology

Our technology combines cutting-edge cloud-computing and the power of open source software. It enables firms to collaborate to build and share data pipelines across the industry.

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 that is then automatically code-generated (into Java).
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 Modelling Approach

We like Agile development but use only the parts that make sense for us. We are not dogmatic about specific parts of Agile but believe it brings the users and developers closer, because together we create better solutions.

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).

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.

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.

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.

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.
