About this role
Project description
We are looking for a Senior Avaloq Developer to design, build and enhance trading and settlement functionality on the Avaloq Banking Suite. You will work on the end-to-end securities trade lifecycle, from order capture through execution, STEX (stock exchange) processing and settlement. A key part of the role is order and settlement pooling: aggregating, allocating and netting instructions efficiently and accurately.

-
Build and maintain STEX and settlement workflows, covering instruction generation, matching, status handling, fails management and reconciliation.
-
Apply pooling logic: aggregating orders into block or pooled orders, allocating executions back to underlying client orders, and netting or consolidating settlement instructions where appropriate.
-
Develop and maintain connectivity with exchanges, brokers, custodians and CSDs/depositories using ISO 20022, SWIFT, FIX and APIs.
-
Analyse requirements, produce technical designs and estimates, and take part in solution workshops.
-
Investigate and resolve complex production incidents, performing root cause analysis and delivering permanent fixes.
-
Support testing cycles (SIT, UAT, regression), release management and deployment activities.
-
Review code, mentor junior developers and promote best practices in coding, performance and documentation.
-
Work with Operations, Compliance and Risk teams so solutions meet regulatory and control requirements.
