About The Position

We are looking for a Full Stack Engineer to join our Portfolio Management Technology team. You will build and maintain mission-critical systems that power financial advisory workflows, real-time portfolio management, and event-driven data pipelines. The role is backend-heavy — you'll spend the majority of your time building Java services using MongoDB — but you'll also contribute to Angular front-end applications when needed. You should also be proficient in understanding and evaluating AI-assisted model development workflows (GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Codex) including the creation and use of agentic skills, and have a foundational understanding of generative AI engineering concepts such as vector stores and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) for potential future use cases.

Requirements

Strong understanding of OOP principles (encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, abstraction) with the ability to design clean, maintainable class hierarchies and apply SOLID principles in Java codebases
Deep understanding of microservices design patterns including service decomposition, inter-service communication, fault tolerance, and independent deployability
Strong grasp of the technical architecture of modern web applications and web technologies, including RESTful API design (Jersey/JAX-RS), WebSocket-based real-time communication, HTTP lifecycle, client-server patterns, and scalable distributed systems
Experience working in Agile/Scrum development environments including sprint planning, standups, retrospectives, backlog grooming, and iterative delivery cycles
Proficiency in AI-assisted development workflows (GitHub Copilot, Claude Code) including the creation and use of Skills, with a foundational understanding of generative AI concepts such as vector stores and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) for potential future use cases
Java 11+ — strong proficiency with Spring Boot, REST APIs (Jersey/JAX-RS), and dependency injection (Guice or Spring)
MongoDB — hands-on experience with document modeling, aggregation pipelines, and an ODM framework
Event-driven systems — familiarity with event buses, message-driven processing, pub/sub patterns or reactive programming experience
RESTful & WebSocket APIs — designing, building, and consuming REST endpoints and real-time WebSocket channels
Testing discipline — unit testing (JUnit, Mockito), code coverage tooling (JaCoCo), and integration testing
Git & CI/CD — comfortable with GitLab workflows, automated builds, and deployment pipelines

Nice To Haves

Angular — ability to read, debug, and contribute to TypeScript/Angular front-end codebases (NX monorepo experience a plus)
Kubernetes & Docker — container-based deployment and orchestration
Node.js / TypeScript — for CLI tooling, developer experience projects, or VS Code extension development
Financial services domain knowledge — portfolio management, trading, or wealth management technology
Monitoring & observability — Micrometer, Prometheus, SonarQube, or similar tools

Responsibilities

Design, develop, and maintain Java 11+ services using Gradle, Guice and Spring Boot across a large-scale codebase
Build and extend event-driven pipeline services (positions, cash management, asset allocation, alerts, workflows)
Work with MongoDB extensively — schema design, query optimization, and data modelling
Contribute to real-time data infrastructure including WebSocket-based systems (RxJava, Jetty, Jersey)
Pick up Angular front-end tasks as needed — feature work, bug fixes, and integration with backend APIs using AG-Grid, NgRx, and RxJS
Write and maintain comprehensive unit and integration tests (JUnit, Mockito, Jest) targeting high code coverage thresholds
Participate in CI/CD pipeline maintenance using GitLab CI, Conduit, and Gradle-based build tooling
Collaborate on deployment and infrastructure-as-code for Kubernetes-hosted services
