What's the Role?
The Planning Solutions team builds the suite of applications that take the company's vision of being at the center of the financial lives of our clients forward.
Within PS, the Compute team works at the intersection of technology and financial modeling. The team maintains and enhances the backend modelling platform that is used to build a comprehensive financial plan for our clients. This involves building the underlying infrastructure as well as implementing the financial planning business logic to create various simulations, solvers, scenarios that are required to predict the financial future of the client and provide them with recommendations to secure it. All the number crunching related to the financial plan is handled by this team.
Currently, we are working to take our vision of developing the next generation of financial planning applications forward, along with an increased focus on making our current suite of applications more performant and feature rich. We are looking for driven, financially minded backend engineers with a passion for building a new class of planning software.
Our team is composed of engineers who thrive in a highly collaborative team environment designed to solve complex problems. We leverage functional programming paradigms heavily as they fit our problem space well. Our services are developed in Scala, Java, and Kotlin and are deployed on a highly distributed AWS stack. If you are passionate about solving complex financial problems efficiently, thinking outside the box and have a knack for functional programming, we want to hear from you.
As a senior engineer in the Compute team, you will be an integral part of the team that will take the center stage for our data modeling and strategy. You will be leading projects by defining architecture, doing hands on development, and managing the timelines of the project. You will provide technical leadership to the junior members of the team. You will establish, aggregate, and share team standards and best practices within the department. You will assess and provide solutions to system-wide architecture problems.
