Job Description

• Software Engineer Req #: 190023018Location: Bangalore East KA INJob Category: TechnologyJob DescriptionThe Global Tax Reporting team is building a new middleware application (GTP) which will become the sole interface between our Core Banking and Tax Calculation & Reporting Applications. GTP application will be deployed on cloud and follow micro service architecture. Business rules processing will be handled by a rules engine component. The target state for GTP is to exploit and expose web services but in the interim term at least we will need to interface to legacy systems using more traditional technologies such as Sybase Perl SFTP and flat files. We are building this application from the ground up so we need to create our Continuous Integration Environment and establish our engineering practices such as automated build and test execution. We have also embarked on an Agile transformation so working knowledge of Agile practices (especially Scrum) would be a distinct advantage.GTP is being built to deliver regulatory requirements for 2019 and beyond so this is a priority development but all legacy interfaces will need to be migrated to it in time and eventually all future interface development will be done exclusively within GTP. This is a genuine and very rare opportunity to get involved at the start of an exciting development which promises to transform the Private Banks capability to stay ahead of Tax regulations and ensure our on-going compliance.The EnvironmentThe candidate will be working in a team responsible for a single self-contained project or within a work stream of a larger program of work.
