Job Description:

Job Title UI Engineer - Front Office Trading Platforms

Corporate Title Assistant Vice President

Location New York, NY

Overview

Join a front-office engineering team building high-performance React applications that power Deutsche Bank's electronic trading business in Fixed Income and Currencies. You will design and deliver real-time, trader-facing user interfaces where speed, reliability, and usability directly impact trading decisions and revenue. Working side-by-side with traders, sales, quants, and product partners, you'll turn complex market workflows into intuitive, low-latency tools used during live market hours. As part of a global engineering organization, you'll contribute across the full product lifecycle with a strong focus on modern front-end architecture, User Interface (UI) performance, and resilient production delivery.

What We Offer You

  • A diverse and inclusive environment that embraces change, innovation, and collaboration
  • A hybrid working model, allowing for in-office / work from home flexibility, generous vacation, personal and volunteer days
  • Employee Resource Groups support an inclusive workplace for everyone and promote community engagement
  • Competitive compensation packages including health and wellbeing benefits, retirement savings plans, parental leave, and family building benefits
  • Educational resources, matching gift and volunteer programs

What You'll Do
  • Design, build, and operate real-time, event-driven React micro-frontends for trader workflows, optimizing for sub-second UI updates, low latency, and high throughput in market-driven conditions
  • Drive end-to-end solution design with a front-end-first mindset, working closely with engineers across the stack to deliver scalable, performant trading applications
  • Partner directly with traders, sales, and quants to translate desk needs into technical designs and iterative deliveries, managing competing priorities, communicating trade-offs clearly, and pushing back diplomatically under time pressure
  • Champion strong engineering and Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) practices, including requirements analysis, design patterns, code reviews, automated testing, secure-by-design implementation, controlled releases, and setting technical standards while guiding and mentoring other engineers
  • Collaborating with a global engineering team as part of a broader technology transformation, acting as a technical point of reference and leading through influence rather than authority

Skills You'll Need
  • Strong expertise in modern React and TypeScript (functional components, hooks, and contemporary state-management patterns), with proven experience optimizing UI performance across large, dynamic datasets
  • Hands-on experience building real-time systems such as pricing, market data, risk, or order flow, including UI consumption of streaming data and integration with messaging or event-streaming platforms (e.g., Solace, Kafka, Java Message Service (JMS)/IBM Message Queue (MQ), or similar)
  • Solid understanding of distributed systems and backend integrations, with experience working with caches, view servers, asynchronous patterns, WebSocket's, RESTful Application Programming Interface (APIs), and tuning performance at the UI layer
  • Practical experience working in Agile teams (Scrum or Kanban), with strong communication skills and comfort engaging senior stakeholders and traders in a fast-moving front-office environment, including making decisions with incomplete information

Skills That Will Help You Excel
  • Domain knowledge in Fixed Income and Derivatives, with familiarity across market data and electronic trading ecosystems
