Job Description

So who are we?

Hello, we’re IG Group. We are a publicly-traded FTSE250 FinTech company who run mobile, web and desktop platforms that help our clients trade stocks & shares, leveraged products, Futures & Options and Crypto.

We are ambitious. Over 340,000 people already use our platforms. We’re global with offices in 18 countries and products in 16 regions. We’re hungry to move faster, ship better product for our customers and grow our user base. We believe in high autonomy, and we want people who are looking to do things differently in order to create better experiences for our customers.

We work in cross-functional teams and are laser focused on increasing the number of active clients we serve to drive sustainable growth.

Dealing Support Analyst

Your role in the Team 

We are seeking an experienced Engineer with over 5+ years of hands-on experience in development and team handling. The ideal candidate will have a robust understanding of back-end technologies and third-party integrations, along with a proven track record of leading development teams to success. This role demands a deep proficiency in C++ (20), Python, SQLLite, Kafka, Splunk, GitLab, REST API services, CMake, networks, AMQP and vcpkg. 

 
As an engineer on our MetaTrader 4/5 Team, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining our pricing and order integration with MT4 and MT5. You will need to optimize these systems to ensure seamless user experiences, data integrity, and security compliance. You will operate within an agile development framework, leveraging adaptive methodologies and advanced frontend development strategies to meet project deadlines, uphold industry best practices, and identify opportunities for system enhancements.  

Who we’re looking for? 

You’re curious about things like the client experience, the rapid developments in tech, and the complex world of fintech regulation. You’re also a confident, creative thinker with a knack for innovating. We know that you know every problem has a solution. Here, you can try new ideas, and lead the way in creating inspiring experiences for our clients and everyone around you. 

We don’t fit the corporate stereotype. If you want to work for a traditional, suit-and-tie corporate that just gives you a pay cheque at the end of the month, we might not be for you. But, if you have that IG Group energy and you can stand behind what we believe in, let’s raise the bar together. 

What you’ll do

• Working with fellow developers, fostering a collaborative and high-performance environment
• Design, develop, and maintain scalable web applications using a wide range of technologies
• Architect and implement robust back-end solutions with C++ (14,17,20) 
• Develop and integrate communication between MT5.MT4 and IG’s back-end systems
• Manage real-time data processing with AMQ 
• Monitor and troubleshoot application issues using Splunk
• Utilize GitLab for version control and CI/CD processes
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define, design, and ship new features
• Ensure code quality, maintainability, and best practices through code reviews and continuous improvement.
