Full Job Description

Join our Market Services Trade Validation team and help shape the next phase of our post-trade platform transformation. The team is evolving a digital-first post-trade lifecycle, partnering closely with business teams and using modern cloud and AI-enabled technologies to reduce manual intervention, move controls closer to trade execution, and validate data at source.

We are a global financial services group operating in 30 markets with 57 years of unbroken profitability. At Macquarie, you’re empowered to shape a career that is fulfilling and creates value. You will bring your insights and expertise to the task at hand and feel supported as you make your own kind of impact for a better future.

What role will you play?

As a hands-on engineering leader, you’ll shape the architecture, delivery, and technical direction of a large-scale financial platform while continuing to write production code regularly. You’ll review pull requests, design microservices architecture, mentor engineers, uplift code quality, and help drive consistent engineering standards across the team.

You’ll act as a player-coach, balancing deep technical contribution with team leadership. You’ll help turn complexity into clarity, empower engineers to take ownership, manage delivery risk carefully, and guide the team to make high-quality technical decisions with appropriate autonomy.

What you offer

Extensive hands-on software engineering experience, with deep Java/JVM expertise and a strong track record delivering complex, business-critical platforms
Strong current coding capability in Java and JavaScript, including experience with Java 17+, Spring Boot 3.x, Spring Cloud, and Spring Security
Experience designing distributed systems, microservices architectures, scalable backend platforms, and API-led integrations
Practical experience with cloud-native engineering, preferably AWS, including Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, infrastructure as code, observability, and operational resilience
Experience with data and messaging technologies such as PostgreSQL, Redis, MSSQL, Apache Kafka, AWS SQS/SNS, and RESTful APIs
Proven ability to lead, mentor, and develop engineering teams, creating a culture of trust, clarity, accountability, and ownership
Strong architectural judgement, with the ability to make high-quality technical decisions, manage delivery risk, and bring structure to ambiguous environments
Experience with AI-assisted development, automation, or agentic AI integration, including tools such as GitHub Copilot, AWS Bedrock, or equivalent
Strong stakeholder management skills, with experience aligning technical direction to strategic priorities, commercial outcomes, and production stability
Experience in financial markets, post-trade processing, OTC derivatives, or agentic AI systems would be highly regarded.

We love hearing from anyone inspired to build a better future with us, if you're excited about the role or working at Macquarie we encourage you to apply.

What we offer

At Macquarie, you’re empowered to shape a career that’s rewarding in all the ways that matter most to you. Macquarie employees can access a wide range of benefits which, depending on employment type, include:

1 wellbeing leave day per year
Up to 5 additional service bonus leave days per year
Up to 20 weeks’ paid parental leave for primary caregivers along with 12 days of transition leave upon return to work, and 6 weeks’ paid leave for non-primary caregivers
