QIS Platform Analyst

Your role

Are you interested in a role that offers high visibility, significant autonomy, and the opportunity to apply AI in real production environments within a front office adjacent setting?

o Break down complex, ambiguous problems spanning systems, data and business logic
o Drive durable, structural improvements rather than short term fixes
Change & platform evolution
o Support onboarding of new strategies, features, datasets and analytical capabilities
o Contribute to re platforming and modernisation initiatives
