About the Role
We are looking for a Calypso Developer with 5–7 years of hands-on Calypso development experience to design, develop, and maintain Calypso-based solutions across our capital markets technology estate. You will combine Calypso platform expertise with strong Java and SQL skills — delivering robust, high-quality configurations and customisations that support trading, back office, accounting, and regulatory requirements.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and maintain Calypso platform solutions — configuration, customisation, and Java-based extensions across trade capture, back office, and accounting modules.
- Develop and maintain Calypso interfaces — SWIFT, FIX, MQ, XML, and REST — connecting Calypso with internal and external systems.
- Write and optimise SQL queries — data validation, reconciliation, and reporting across Oracle / PostgreSQL Calypso databases.
- Configure Calypso static data — counterparty, product, account, workflow, and SSI definitions across environments.
- Support Calypso batch processing — scheduling, dependency management, and failure resolution for EOD processing cycles.
- Conduct unit testing and support UAT — validating Calypso configurations and customisations against functional specifications.
- Collaborate with BAs, architects, and operations teams — translating business requirements into well-designed Calypso technical solutions.
- Produce clear technical documentation — configuration guides, integration specifications, and deployment runbooks.
What We're Looking For
- 5–7 years of hands-on Calypso development experience in capital markets environments.
- Strong Java skills — applied to Calypso plugin development, custom workflow actions, and platform extensions.
- Good Calypso platform knowledge — trade capture, back office, accounting, or collateral modules.
- Solid SQL skills — Oracle / PostgreSQL — complex querying, stored procedures, and data validation.
- Experience with Calypso interface configuration — SWIFT, MQ, FIX, XML, or REST integrations.
- Good capital markets domain knowledge — financial instruments, trade lifecycle, and back office operations.
- Familiarity with Git, Maven, and CI/CD tooling for Calypso build and deployment.
- Good communication and collaboration skills — working effectively with BAs, architects, and operations teams.
