Team & Context

We are looking for a motivated and intellectually curious C++ Developer to join the Volatility team, who will be working at the intersection of software engineering and quantitative finance.

The Market Data domain plays a central role in Murex’s pricing and risk ecosystem. It is responsible for managing the full lifecycle of market data — from raw market prices to the transformed data used to evaluate trades and positions.

Our responsibilities include:

  • Defining and interfacing with external and internal market data sources
  • Orchestrating data loading, transformation, and storage in the Murex platform
  • Managing real-time and scenario-based data impacts
  • Providing public APIs and services to help clients interact with market data efficiently

We deliver robust frameworks that support evaluation, simulation, and impact analysis of market data across the system.

We manage the entire volatility processing chain:

  • Data storage and retrieval
  • Calibration and interpolation of volatility surfaces
  • Risk computation, including Vega sensitivities

Our work spans both technical and financial challenges — from optimizing data exports and database performance to solving complex modeling and calibration problems.
