Java Developer / Lead Java Developer, “From Scratch” Greenfield Project, Exciting Financial Services Technology Start-Up recruitment

The Organisation: A Financial Services Technology Start-Up that was formed in 2011. Investors and potential clients have flocked to the scene, and everything is in place for this group of high profile ex bankers and hedge fund managers to start providing their service. All that remains is to build the all-important technology platform behind the service.

The Team: You will join a small group of people who have come together to create something unique. The individual looking to join this team must have a passion for Java Enterprise engineering and be highly motivated.

The Project: This is a from-scratch, completely Greenfield project. You will be a part of a small team meaning you will have influence over how the software is developed.

The Role: Java Developer on a brand new application. This role will report directly to the Lead Java Architect.

The Skills:

Essential:

•Server side multi-threaded Java/J2EE development (circa 5 years)

•JMS and asynchronous MOM architectures

•Spring initiatives such as Core Spring, Spring Integration and Spring Batch

•JUnit and TestNG

•Hibernate

•SQL and Oracle

•Previous experience either with a Hedge Fund or within a Prime Brokerage Team

Desirable:

•Camel and Mule

•JiBX

•HTML 5 and GWT

•SVN/Git, Maven, Hudson/Bamboo, JIRA

The Package: This firm is looking for people that will join this company for the long term. Based on this, they are offering equity to this individual, providing he/she joins and delivers. This company will explode in a couple of years in terms of profits, so this equity will undoubtedly be the most attractive part of the package. The base salary on offer is up to £75,000. Those who can’t see past the investment banking “one year base plus bonus” remuneration structure need not apply. This isn’t for everyone, but will surely be worth the while of the successful applicant when this company takes off.
