Key Responsibilities Evolve, design and implement bond pricing and analytics engine algorithms in C++, covering government bonds, corporate bonds, inflation-linked bonds, floating rate notes (FRNs), and structured credit instruments. Build and maintain fixed-income quantitative libraries for valuation, risk evaluation, and performance attribution. Implement multi-curve/OIS bootstrapping frameworks, discount/forward curve construction, and credit curve models. Develop and evolve Python-based tools and valuation engine infrastructure (using NumPy, Pandas) for prototyping models, data pipelines, and back-testing analytics. Collaborate closely with quantitative researchers, traders, analysts, and developers to translate financial models and complex technical specifications into effective production-grade code. Design and implement pipelines for market data ingestion and pricing workflows. Optimize C++ code for memory efficiency, latency, and throughput in a real-time analytics environment. Conduct code reviews, write unit and integration tests, carry out frequent backtesting, and ensure adherence to coding best practices and highly effective solutions. Integrate third-party libraries and financial data APIs. Required Skills & Qualifications Technical: Strong proficiency in C++ (C++11/14/17/20) including STL, templates, and memory management.
