TRULY AWESOME Fintech opportunity for Junior to Mid-level
candidates - High GPA, high potential with any strong CS code
skillset
Somerville, MA - VERY HIGH Bar here
5-6 junior roles (0-5 yrs) and 1 mid-level role with lead potential
(must know Java)
Our client has beautiful, modern offices - very sharp group of
candidates - profitable and doing very well. Bivium has placed a
number of junior & associate engineers here, who LOVE the cultural,
technical and business problems!
Our client is a small company (currently 84 employees) that
specializes in the financial space, specifically in the securities
settlements realm. We maintain fairly strict hiring standards.
Our basic junior hiring guidelines are:
candidates must have an undergrad gpa of at least 3.3/4.0 and have
majored in computer science or related field (or demonstrated an
interest in programming through electives/summer jobs/etc)
candidates should have 0-7 years experience-- we take more
experienced candidates with relevant experience (eg programming in
financial realm), but as most new employees come in, in a junior
role, we do not usually hire people with > 5 yrs unrelated
experience
candidates must have desire to "learn the business"-- we market
ourselves as software developers and IT consultants who know the
securities settlements business as well as our clients do
A bit more information about us. We consider ourselves to be
"technology agnostic"--that is we hire people without the
expectation that they are experienced in any one technology, but
they are smart enough and interested enough to become proficient in
any technology that we may require. That said, it is certainly the
case that most of our client work is in the most common
technologies--we see a lot of Java, some C, some .NET, various
database platforms).
We have even hired people without much of a programming experience
to speak of (perhaps only a class taken as an elective) but who
demonstrate strong analytical ability and a desire to learn more
about software engineering.
One of the biggest distinctions between us and our competitors is
the value we place on learning the business. We view ourselves as
somewhere between the technology and the business space, and as
such many of our associates complete tasks that would traditionally
fall under more of a business analyst role (in addition to software
development, not instead of). We are client facing consultants, not
just heads down coders, so written and oral communication skills
are very important and we generally hire either junior developers
(0-5 yrs experience) or more experienced developers with experience
relevant to our field.
In terms of relevant experience, simply writing software for a
financial company is more relevant than unrelated industries, but
not sufficient for a more experienced hire (i.e., 5+ years). Many
people do technical work at financial firms and solve only
technical problems without learning too much about the business
processes that they are supporting. The extremely rare successful
experienced candidate writes software to solve business problems
(not technical problems) in back-office areas such as settlements,
clearing, and accounting. Working in other areas such as stock
borrow / stock loan, prime brokerage, position keeping systems,
etc., are also relevant.
Why someone would want to come here:
I think the shortest answer is that we are the best of all worlds.
We are a small company with a small company feel (great coworkers,
no red tape, flexible schedules, casual dress code) but do work for
some of the largest companies in the world in some of the most
relevant and cutting-edge projects. The owners of the firm place a
high value on the people working for them, and new employees will
immediately have relevant work to do, and not spend their first
year merely testing someone else's code. The company is also very
good at rewarding hard work.
