We are

Fidelity Information Systems (FISTM) is the world’s largest financial technology solutions provider. FIS’ more than 55,000 worldwide employees are passionate about moving our clients’ business forward and keep them competitive through thought leadership, operational excellence and innovation. We help our clients transform disruption into opportunity, giving them the tools needed to thrive not just today, but in tomorrow’s financial world.

FIS Front Arena

At FISTM Front Arena in Stockholm we have been building systems for financial trading, risk management and position control for 30 years. Our systems enable banks, hedge funds and other financial institutions make critical decisions with confidence, execute their orders and follow up their positions independent of the asset class: stocks, commodities, rates or FX. Whether the trade is done through an exchange or over the counter, we’ve got it covered. But that’s just part of the story. In short, we support the whole electronic trading process from sell-side to buy-side and front-to-back.

Your Role

As a developer in our Operations team you will be challenged with a wide range of tasks, ranging from design, development and maintenance of our solution in PRIME, one of the client applications for financial trading in Front Arena. The Operations team solves problems and GUI development to workflow for back-office for all asset classes. Our solutions are typically implemented using C/C++ and Python.
We will offer you challenges, where understanding customer requirements and solving problems is a key part, in combination with creating advanced technical solutions. You will be part of an agile team with skilled and motivated developers and QA that take full responsibility for its solution which includes both working on continuous improvements as well as innovations. We believe that the best solutions are built if you can be proud of what you produce! By working closely together with Senior Developers and the Product Owner in your Scrum team you will get a deep understanding of market needs.

Position requirements

We expect you to have the following:
• M Sc. in Computer Science, Engineering Physics or similar degree.
• A great interest in learning the financial markets
• Experience in an object-oriented language. Knowledge in C++ is a plus.
