The Team
The Execution cluster owns Trayport’s back-end systems. This means ensuring that when commodities traders and brokers login to our systems they have a great experience. Essential to this is creating software that helps them with their most pressing business needs, and that is performant and reliable. What makes this team particularly exciting is we look after the first product that Trayport ever made, but are also working at the cutting edge of pushing Trayport forward, creating some of the newest products. Testing here involves digging into logs, databases, running scripts, and using 3rd party and internal test tools in a deeply collaborative environment where everyone helps each other. The role involves understanding complex user workflows in finance and trading, and ensuring we build quality into our software. This role is ideal for someone who has some technical background and wants to go deeper. If you are interested in growing your career and developing your skillset in a supportive and friendly environment, we want to hear from you!
