About The Position

At Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), we engineer technology, exchanges and clearing houses that connect companies around the world to global capital and derivative markets. With a leading-edge approach to developing technology platforms, we have built market infrastructure in all major trading centers, offering customers the ability to manage risk and make informed decisions globally. By leveraging our core strengths in technology, we continue to identify new ways to serve our customers and transform global markets. As a Senior Developer, you will be part of a team responsible for the design, implementation and support of the Derivatives Trading Platform.

This role requires frequent interactions with fellow developers, project and product managers, quality assurance, and other stakeholders, to ensure delivery of world-class applications to our users.
