Senior Java Software Engineer

Project description

We are DXC Luxoft Financial Services, an award-winning provider of technology solutions dedicated to the Financial Services sector.

We are establishing a high-impact engineering squad in Bucharest to deliver a next-generation Financial Markets Clearing Platform for FX Swaps, a critical component in the global clearing ecosystem.

A key innovation area in this program is the adoption of AI-driven tooling to modernize and extend an existing service that currently processes CSV-based trade data. The goal is to intelligently transform and enrich trade data into compliant FPML (Financial products Markup Language) formats, supporting new and evolving product types with minimal manual intervention.

This initiative operates within a highly regulated, low-latency environment, with strict requirements around resilience, performance, and availability, while also preparing the platform for future cloud migration within the next 12–18 months.

You will work in an Agile Scrum environment, contributing across the full SDLC—from architecture and design to implementation, testing, and production rollout—while aligning with client engineering standards.

Team Overview

We are building a dedicated squad in Bucharest (Java Developers + QA Automation Engineers) working closely with global teams. The team operates in 2-week sprint cycles, following Agile ceremonies (stand-ups, retrospectives, backlog refinement).

The team will be responsible for end-to-end delivery of the FX Swaps product, including design, development, testing, production deployment, and post-go-live support.
