Senior C++ Engineer

At ABN AMRO Clearing we aspire to lead the way to safe and transparent markets. In banking, Clearing denotes all activities from the time a commitment (buy or sell) is made for a transaction until it is settled. Clearing acts as an intermediary between clients and the exchanges they trade on. We become the buyer to the seller and the seller to the buyer, taking over the risk to reconcile ordered between the parties in the transaction. We do so for professional traders, investment managers and corporates. We understand them and strive to deliver reliable, high-quality service across the globe. Working at ABN AMRO Clearing means thriving in an international, professional yet informal, fast-paced environment.

Your job

As IT Engineer for our Risk software development team, you work on large technical projects, help set the direction for the development of our clearing and risk management application landscape and serve as role model within the organization. You establish vision and technical direction for major initiatives and build high quality and architecturally sound systems. You develop a deep understanding of trading, clearing, risk management and what the 'machine' is doing. You're not attached to tools and technologies, but you focus on solving problems. You work on the most complex projects while questioning every assumption, involving fellow engineers, business partners and analysts. This also means hands-on programming, testing and putting the new solutions into production. You bring clarity to complexity and demonstrate smart ways to simplify our ecosystem. Together with your team, you deliver value to the business partners, aiming for stakeholder satisfaction.

You'll have a lot of freedom, but also responsibility. The scope of our systems is large and our technology leaders trust you with one of our most important assets. Your decisions have substantial impact on the trust in the financial market space and the flow of millions of Euros. Your actions will result in meeting obligations towards clients and regulators and extending our reputation of a trusted clearing partner.

Working environment

That is why our application development teams collaborate closely to explore ideas and set the new direction. Together we build and maintain an outstanding suite of reliable, high performing systems and applications. Current core technology stack:
