  • Perform application restarts, log analysis, and server-level diagnostics

  • Participate in weekend and on-call support (ad hoc, with future move to rota)

  • Contribute to automation and tooling improvements

Required Skills & Experience:

  • Must have front-office exposure, proven experience interacting with Traders.

  • Proven experience supporting Murex (v2.11 and/or v3.1) in a production environment

  • Strong working knowledge of Linux/Unix and SQL

  • Hands-on experience with monitoring tools (e.g. Splunk, Grafana, ITRS)

Desirable:

  • Scripting skills in Python or Shell

  • Exposure to cloud-hosted Murex platforms (MX.3 SaaS)

Additional Information:

  • Location: London – onsite required initially; hybrid available post onboarding

  • Compensation: £100,000–£110,000 base + annual bonus

  • Permanent, full-time position
