About The Position

As a member of our application team, you’ll be at the intersection of domain knowledge, a complex data model and a stream of real-world events.

Your job is to make sure the right things happen in the right order, and that edge cases are handled correctly so that financial advisors can trust what they’re seeing.

You’ll need to distill this complexity into a clear experience that allows financial advisors to understand the impact of their choices and present the best possible information to their clients.
