Front Office Application Support Analyst, Fixed Income and Equities Trading
Global Bank, U.S. Securities Business
Midtown Manhattan | Four days onsite, one day remote
Long-term contract
The Opportunity
The U.S. securities arm of a global bank is adding a Front Office Application Support Analyst to its Front Office Solutions technology group. You'll sit close to the fixed income and equities trading desks and own production support for the platforms they rely on every day: order management, electronic trading, market connectivity, and the systems behind regulatory reporting.
This is a hands-on technology role, not an operations, trade support, or middle office seat. You'll be the engineer traders call when an order won't route or a FIX session drops. You'll diagnose it across the application, server, and connection, fix it fast, and then write the script that keeps it from happening again.
What You'll Do
Provide production support for fixed income and equities trading applications, working directly with traders, sales, and business stakeholders
Troubleshoot and resolve application, server, and FIX connectivity issues in real time across Unix/Linux and Windows
Write and maintain shell scripts and automation in Python or another language to improve monitoring, health checks, and recurring manual work
Query and analyze trade data in SQL for investigations and root-cause analysis
Support the systems and data feeds behind regulatory reporting, including TRACE, CAT, and TRF/ORF
Take part in releases, upgrades, testing, and change management across front office systems
Partner with development and infrastructure teams on projects and platform changes
What We're Looking For
Hands-on scripting in shell (bash, ksh) and programming experience in one of Python, Java, C#, or C++
Solid SQL, with experience in Oracle, Sybase, or similar databases
Strong troubleshooting across Unix/Linux and Windows
Application support or development experience on front office trading systems at a broker-dealer or bank, ideally with credit, rates, or electronic trading desks
Working knowledge of fixed income and equity trading workflows and the trade lifecycle
Calm under pressure and able to talk directly to traders when something is broken
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience
Able to work onsite in Midtown four days a week
Preferred Experience
FIX Protocol (4.2 to 5.0) and order routing platforms
Bloomberg TOMS, Ullink Bridge, FlexTrade, or a similar OMS
Fixed income regulatory reporting systems (TRACE) or equity reporting (CAT, TRF/ORF, Rule 606)
MongoDB or other NoSQL databases
Advanced Excel, including macros
This is a desk-facing technology seat with real ownership of the trading platforms a growing securities business runs on.
