About our team
Welcome to the Risk and Valuation value stream — We add value by building and maintaining the data infrastructure and analytical solutions that empower our Risk Management and Valuation teams in turning complex financial data into reliable, actionable insights.
We cover the full risk landscape: pre- and post-trade compliance monitoring, key metrics, market risk, liquidity risk, counterparty risk, credit risk, and sustainability risk - drawing upon SimCorp Dimension, MSCI risk manager and other proprietary solutions, from which we create tools and process to enable analytics.
We believe in engineering discipline — treating pipelines and business logic as code to the extent possible, maintaining quality standards, and building systems that scale. We are currently in the middle of an exciting migration towards a modern data stack with Snowflake at its core, embracing the speed, flexibility, and AI enablement the platform makes possible.
Joining this team means working at the intersection of finance and engineering, with real room to leave your mark on how we evolve our framework, while developing your skills in a technically ambitious and collaborative environment.
