Senior Java Trading Systems Engineer - Fixed Income & FX

Join the Java Engineering Team at a top N. American Bank This isn’t just another dev role. It’s your chance to engineer the core of global trading. We’re talking ultra-low-latency architectures, real-time market data, and automation at scale — all in an environment where milliseconds matter and billions move. You’ll work on greenfield and semi-greenfield projects, building dealer-side workflows that redefine how traders quote, price, and execute. If you thrive on complexity, love solving performance challenges under pressure, and want to collaborate directly with traders and product teams at the sharp edge of financial technology — this is your arena. The Role at a Glance

• Senior Java Backend Engineer
• Fully remote for a top N. American bank (for residents of Poland only)
• Openings on multiple teams in the capital markets division (fixed income trading, FX trading systems)
• Part of the core team - this is not a legacy support role or an outsourced B team

This role requires experience building trading systems for fixed income or FX. If you’ve worked on order routing, algorithmic order management, quoting, pricing data, execution, or settlement, we’d like to talk to you. We’re hiring experienced backend engineers (5+ years) to join a major N. American bank — directly supporting the development of financial trading systems. This is not a legacy maintenance or support role — you’ll be part of the core product team, building highly-performant, low-latency systems used across the firm.
