As a Barclays Quantitative Developer (Front Office Platform), you will be working in the Front Office Platform team which is a joint venture between QA Strategic Projects and the Statistical Modelling & Development (SM&D) team. You will focus on driving adoption of the Dart platform across the QA Markets organization and will be involved in onboarding QA Markets teams to Dart, working on adding support to Dart for data sources required and on specific projects to build out more complex applications in partnership with QA Markets teams.

Barclays is one of the world's largest and most respected financial institutions, established in 1690, with a legacy of success, quality, and innovation. We offer careers that provide endless opportunity – helping millions of individuals and businesses thrive and creating financial and digital solutions that the world now takes for granted.

At Barclays, we offer a hybrid working experience that blends the positives of working alongside colleagues at our onsite locations, together with working from home.  We have a structured approach where colleagues work at an onsite location on fixed, ‘anchor’, days of the week, for a minimum of two days a week or more, as set by the business area (or nearest equivalent if working part-time hours). Please discuss the working pattern requirements for the role you are applying for with the hiring manager. Please note that as we continue to embed our hybrid working environment, we remain in a test and learn phase, which means that working arrangements may be subject to change on reasonable notice to ensure we meet the needs of our business.

•    Assisting with the onboarding and ongoing support of Flix applications within Dart

•    Designing front end micro services for UI applications
•    Designing re-usable components/libraries for both front and back ends – part of the Dart platform development process
•    Helping in the evolution of the Dart platform with new tools, libraries etc
•    Taking ownership for managing risk and strengthening controls in relation to the work you do

What we’re looking for:
•    Solid software development experience in python is essential
•    Data engineering and data orchestration experience with python and its associated libraries – pandas, numpy, dagster
•    Experience designing data or analytics micro services using python FastAPI 
•    Experience of building production quality infrastructure

Skills that will help you in the role:
•    Experience in front-end web development (ReactJS, Javascript/Typescript, HTML, CSS), designing micro services (ReactJS, node.js
•    Software engineering experience with parallel and distributed computing python libraries – dask, ray
•    Experience of cloud technologies is desirable (docker, kubernetes, AWS, elastic compute)
•    Solid grasp of Software development lifecycle, experience with tools such as Git, Jenkins, and familiarity with DevOps practices, such as CI/CD

Where will you be working?
Our Prague office is based in the financial centre of Prague.  We are part of the Operations and Technology Division, and as such, we try our best to stay at the top of our technological game. However, the technology itself is not the most important thing. What matters the most to us is the way our ingenuity can help provide better service to our customers and make life easier for our employees.
