At Goldman Sachs, our Engineers don’t just make things – we make things possible. Change the world by connecting people and capital with ideas. Solve the most challenging and pressing engineering problems for our clients. Join our engineering teams that build massively scalable software and systems, architect low latency infrastructure solutions, proactively guard against cyber threats, and leverage machine learning alongside financial engineering to continuously turn data into action. Create new businesses, transform finance, and explore a world of opportunity at the speed of markets.

Margin Engineering owns the systems that enable Goldman Sachs to manage the risk on this trading activity every single day; one of the firm’s competitive advantages. We process millions of trades & positions daily to calculate margin, reconcile portfolios, and deliver valuations & reporting to our clients and regulators in the most scalable, performant, reliable and efficient way possible. Our platform manages tens of millions of continually changing datapoints, hundreds of thousands of complex computations, and tens of thousands of user workflows daily. Our systems are at the front line during geopolitical and market-moving events. Our work protects the firm and its clients and makes the global financial markets safer and more transparent.

Your impact will be to help us build, improve, and adapt this platform at rapid pace to constantly changing market and client demands. You will join a global team of talented and driven technologists who are continually innovating to deliver solutions for our clients and impact the firm’s bottom line.

This role will provide a unique opportunity to develop your technical skills and gain exposure to one of the firm’s most complex and fascinating businesses. Learning, teamwork, partnering with stakeholders, product ownership, working with very large data, designs, technical expertise, and user experience; these are all aspects where you will build your skills and make your mark. Our technology stack consists of Java, AngularJS, React, BPMNs, RESTful web services, Elastic Search, MongoDB, Graph and DB2 databases and Slang/SecDB (GS-proprietary scripting language & risk-management DB). We use Git for Version Control and new development is increasingly cloud-native, either on or off-prem.
