Integration Developer - Market Data connectivity

Project description

The Integration Developer will be responsible for the design, build, testing, deployment and support of market data connectors feeding the Pricing Engine, with a primary focus on Bloomberg B-PIPE and LSEG Real-Time Market Data System (RTMDS). The scope covers real-time streaming and snapshot/reference data flows supporting pricing, curve construction and quoting workflows across Global Markets.

This is a hands-on individual contributor role within the Integration squad, working closely with Front Office technology, Quants, Market Data, Architecture and the vendor technical teams

Responsibilities

• Gather requirements from Front Office, Quants and Market Data stakeholders and document them clearly
• Propose connector solution designs in line with bank guidelines and enterprise architecture standards
• Build, test and deploy Bloomberg B-PIPE and LSEG RTMDS connectors covering real-time streaming, snapshot and reference data flows into the Pricing Engine
• Develop normalization, mapping and enrichment logic so instruments, tickers and curve inputs are consistently represented across Bloomberg, LSEG and internal sources
• Implement resilience and data quality controls: source failover, stale-tick and gap detection, recovery/replay, throttling and conflation
• Ensure entitlement-aware consumption in line with Bloomberg and LSEG licensing terms, including display, non-display and redistribution constraints
• Optimize latency and throughput through performance profiling, capacity sizing and tuning of subscription models
• Deliver monitoring, alerting and operational dashboards, and provide efficient L2/L3 production support
• Navigate the FAB IT Delivery Process, produce interface specifications and support documentation, and maintain audit readiness
• Team player with good communication skills, able to build a network across internal teams and third-party vendors, and respect timelines

• Proven delivery of LSEG/Refinitiv RTMDS (RTDS/TREP) connectivity, with working knowledge of RFA, EMA/ETA, RSSL/RWF and the OMM service and item model

• Strong programming skills in Java and/or C++ and Python, with solid multi-threaded and low-latency development experience

• Experience building high-throughput, fault-tolerant data pipelines using messaging or streaming technologies (MQ, Kafka, or equivalent)

• Good understanding of market data content and pricing inputs across FX, IRD, FI and MM, including curves, volatility surfaces and reference data

• Working knowledge of market data licensing and entitlements, display versus non-display usage, and vendor contractual constraints

• Familiarity with pricing and trading platform ecosystems and with downstream STP flows into Murex and risk systems

• Solid technical foundation: SQL, Linux and shell scripting, Control-M scheduling, and monitoring/observability tooling for market data services
