Remote
12-month contract +

Overview
Client is seeking a Senior Cloud/Java Engineer to support a large-scale DTCC modernization initiative. This effort focuses on transforming how Client exchanges financial messages and data with DTCC (Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation), moving from legacy formats to modern ISO 20022 standards.

This is a greenfield engineering role centered on building cloud-native APIs and infrastructure on AWS. The ideal candidate is a strong Java engineer who can operate independently, move quickly with precision, and leverage both open-source and internal documentation to deliver solutions.
Key Responsibilities
  • Design and build cloud-native APIs and microservices using Java (J2EE/Spring Boot) for deployment in AWS
  • Develop message translation services to convert between DTCC formats and internal systems (e.g., ISO 20022 XML, proprietary formats)
  • Architect and implement event-driven and RESTful APIs for high-throughput financial message processing
  • Deploy and manage services on AWS EKS (Kubernetes) with containerized workloads
  • Build and maintain asynchronous messaging pipelines using distributed messaging systems (RabbitMQ/Amazon MQ or similar)
  • Define and provision infrastructure using Terraform (Infrastructure as Code)
  • Support batch processing workloads using AWS Batch for large-scale data processing
  • Collaborate across engineering teams to ensure accuracy, performance, and reliability of message handling
  • Provide technical leadership and mentorship to junior engineers; guide design and delivery best practices
  • Operate with a high degree of autonomy, driving workstreams end-to-end
Technology Environment
  • Languages: Java (JDK 11+/17+), Spring Boot
  • Cloud & DevOps: AWS (EKS, Batch), Terraform
  • Messaging: RabbitMQ, Amazon MQ, or similar distributed queue systems
  • Databases: Oracle
  • Architecture: Microservices, event-driven systems, API-first design
Required Qualifications
  • Strong experience with Java development (microservices, API development)
  • Hands-on expertise with AWS, specifically EKS/Kubernetes and containerized deployments
  • Experience building or working with distributed messaging systems (RabbitMQ, Kafka, MQ, etc.)
  • Proficiency with Terraform or similar IaC tools
  • Experience designing scalable, high-availability APIs and systems
  • Familiarity with batch processing and asynchronous architectures
  • Ability to interpret and implement solutions from documentation (open-source and internal) with minimal guidance
  • Strong focus on speed, accuracy, and self-sufficiency in delivery
Nice-to-Have
  • Experience with financial services messaging standards (ISO 20022, ISO 15022, etc.)
  • Prior exposure to DTCC integrations or capital markets systems
  • Experience with message parsing, transformation, and routing workflows
  • Knowledge of event-driven architecture and domain-driven design (DDD)
Role Context
  • Team Size: 10 12 engineers (mixed seniority)
  • Structure: Agile/Scrum
  • Role Level: Senior / Lead Individual Contributor
  • Focus Shift: Reduced infrastructure-heavy work; increased emphasis on Java API development and microservices
What Success Looks Like
  • Delivering high-quality, scalable API solutions that enable seamless DTCC integration
  • Owning development from design through deployment with minimal oversight
  • Accelerating modernization through clean, efficient, and accurate engineering execution
  • Elevating team delivery through mentorship and technical leadership
