Lead .Net Engineer (f/m/x) – Autobahn Platform

Description

The Berlin tech centre is the newest site in the company's global network of tech centres and trading hubs, and it is growing quickly.

Engineers here work at the leading edge of financial services, using modern technologies with a strong focus on technical excellence.

Teams work in agile ways and build banking solutions for the whole group from Berlin.

You would join the Desktop team on the digital platform for the corporate and investment bank. The platform delivers 800 core business services to more than 200,000 internal and external users through UI and API channels.

The platform covers desktop, standalone web, mobile, instant messaging and API channels. It gives users one personalised point of access to the bank's services, and behaviour analytics and user experience research help tailor it further.

The platform uses JS/React, Kotlin/Java, Swift and.NET, and is delivered using an agile model.

Your team builds one of the platform's main channels, a cross-process window management framework used by several applications, a toolbar, and an interoperability framework that is open source on GitHub. Other teams build on these.

If you feel you do not meet 100% of the criteria, the company still encourages you to apply.
