We are GBM Surveillance IT. We work within investment banking IT organization and with other global businesses as well to protect our stakeholders from illegal or prohibited activity across channels, including but not limited to trading activity, voice, email and chat.
We work in small teams, bringing development, testing, business analysis, QA and system reliability together. We have started on our journey towards working in a truly agile, no-silos environment. Our teams write their code, write automated test harnesses for their code, use automated mechanisms to deploy their code, and are accountable for their code in Production, including monitoring to ensure they work uninterrupted while delivering new code. All the while they also work closely with business analysts and business stakeholders to deliver value in a steady, incremental stream.
For us, DevOps is not just about technology automation (automated build, test and release). It is about a cultural focus on working cross-functionally and delivering in small increments. We do need people who are 100% focused on automated delivery and are capable of working in dynamic, cross-functional teams to make this happen!
Within Surveillance IT, the Surveillance Data Factory aims to be a "one stop shop" for all of our data acquisition and distribution needs. We supply other workstreams with the data they need in a format usable by them.
We primarily work with a number of internal systems - although this will change as we grow. Acquiring the data is only the first step. We then work with consumer systems to adapt the data to their particular business needs.
As risks and regulations change over time, we are continually seeking to grow our data acquisition & distribution capabilities through the implementation of innovative technologies.
The purpose of this role will be to work in a global agile development team helping deliver the first step towards Surveillance's technology target state. The successful candidate will help design and develop new applications to support and improve Surveillance's way of working in order to achieve strategic objectives.
