Senior Financial Risk Engineer

Permanent employee, Full-time · Bangalore, India

What you'll do

We are looking for a Senior Financial Risk Engineer to own and evolve the core calculation engine behind our ALM and regulatory platform.

This is not a generic backend role. Your primary responsibility is the design and implementation of financial and risk calculations - interest rate risk (IRRBB), liquidity (LCR), stable funding (NSFR), economic value metrics, and balance sheet simulations - within a distributed, cloud-ready architecture.

You will sit at the intersection of:

  • Quantitative / functional risk expertise (ALM, liquidity, regulatory capital), and

  • Robust software engineering (Java, distributed compute, performance, correctness).

If you enjoy:

  • Translating ALM, treasury, and Basel rules into executable models,

  • Designing cash-flow engines and scenario frameworks,

  • If numerical robustness and explainability of risk metrics at scale, then this role is designed for you.

Responsibilities:
  • Lead the design and implementation of core financial/risk models in Java within the RiskPro calculation engine.

  • Work with risk, treasury, and regulatory SMEs to:

    • Validate calculation approaches against ALM desk practice and regulatory expectations

    • Design scenario libraries and stress testing frameworks (rate shocks, liquidity stresses, balance sheet strategies)

  • Implement unit, scenario, and regression test suites:

    • Golden datasets with known outputs for IRRBB, LCR, NSFR, FTP, etc.

    • Non-regression tests when regulatory rules or models are updated

  • Collaborate closely with:

    • Platform engineers on deployment, performance, and observability (Kubernetes, Ignite, OTEL)

    • RRH teams to ensure consistent behaviour of the single-calculation / enrichment loop

  • Contribute to and review technical specifications and design documents for calculation changes.

  • Provide technical and functional mentorship to other developers in the squad on financial calculations.

Why we should decide on you
Functional / Quantitative
  • Several years working hands-on with ALM / Treasury / Risk calculation engines in banking or vendor software, covering at least some of:

    • IRRBB (NII, EVE, gap/duration analysis)

    • Liquidity risk: cash flow engines, LCR and NSFR calculation

    • FTP and balance sheet optimisation, behaviour modelling (prepayment, decay)

  • Deep familiarity with cash-flow-based modelling:

    • Building/maintaining engines that project interest and principal flows over time

    • Handling behavioural vs contractual views and multiple scenario overlays

  • Strong understanding of banking products and their risk characteristics:

    • Retail and wholesale deposits, term deposits, loans/mortgages, securities (bonds), off-balance sheet items, derivatives used for hedging

Technical / Engineering

  • Strong software engineering skills in Java (preferably Java 11+):

    • Solid OO and functional design, collections, concurrency

    • Implementing performant algorithms for large-scale data processing

  • Experience building calculation services that run as part of:

    • Batch job frameworks, grid/distributed compute, or microservice-based calculation engines

  • Competence with relational databases (e.g., MS SQL Server, Oracle, AzureSQL):

    • Understanding of schemas that support risk / ALM data

    • Comfortable with efficient querying and aggregation patterns

  • Good understanding of:

    • RESTful APIs and data contracts (JSON, OpenAPI)

    • Working in a containerized environment (Docker, Kubernetes) with a basic understanding of how services scale and communicate

Nice to Have
  • Experience with:

    • Apache Ignite or other distributed in-memory grids / caches

    • WebSocket-based result streaming or high-volume data export APIs

    • OLAP or multidimensional analytics (ActiveViam Atoti, or similar)

  • Prior work on:

    • Unified risk and regulatory platforms where internal risk numbers must reconcile to regulatory filings

    • Implementing or validating models against EBA / ECB / Basel III / CRR technical standards

  • Familiarity with:

    • OpenTelemetry (metrics, traces), correlation IDs, and traceability patterns for complex calculations

    • Dev practices around model governance (model change logs, validation, challenger models)

How you work
  • You think like both a quant and a software engineer: you care that the numbers are right, explainable, and repeatable, and that the code is robust and maintainable.

  • You are comfortable debating behavioural assumptions, discount curves, and regulatory interpretations, then turning decisions into code and tests.

  • You enjoy working in a cross-functional squad with product, architects, and domain experts, owning problems from idea to production.

  • You are motivated by seeing how your calculations directly influence ALCO decisions, regulatory headroom, and capital efficiency for our clients.

Why you should decide on us
  • Let’s grow together, join a market leading SaaS company – our agile character and culture of innovation enables you to design our future.
  • We provide you with the opportunity to take on responsibility and participate in international projects. 
  • In addition to our buddy-program, we offer numerous individual and wide-ranging training opportunities during which you can explore technical and functional areas. 
  • Our internal mobility initiative encourages colleagues to transfer cross functionally to gain experience and promotes knowledge sharing.
  • We are proud of our positive working atmosphere characterized by a supportive team across various locations and countries and transparent communication across all levels. 
  • Together we're better - meet your colleagues at our numerous team events.
 
To get a first impression, we only need your CV and look forward to meeting you in a (personal/virtual) interview!
Recognizing the benefits of working in diverse teams, we are committed to equal employment opportunities regardless of gender, age, nationality, ethnic or social origin, disability, and sexual identity.
