Job Summary:
• The candidate will work on primarily new services, using modern Java on the server side, across our internal cloud and external clouds.

• As such this role includes providing a follow the sun support model globally of the new Risk services stack in conjunction with the other regional teams in Equities technology.
• This role is focused on building out an event-based infrastructure to rework many of our core flows, moving us towards a real-time-by-default environment.
