French Speaking Front Office IT Support Engineer

We are looking for a French-speaking Front Office IT Support Engineer to join our team in London, supporting live, production-critical trading systems for a Tier-1 Investment Bank.

The team operates in high-pressure Front Office environments where responsiveness, common sense, and clear communication matter most. While technical basics are necessary, we hire primarily for mindset. The team can teach you the rest.

• Our specific Front Office trading systems, electronic execution workflows, and market data platforms.

• Advanced Linux/UNIX commands, internal scripting, and complex production investigation tools.

• The intricate technical setup of a Tier-1 Investment Bank’s trading infrastructure.

• Deep-dive financial domain knowledge, asset class mechanics, and trade lifecycle details.

We are looking for a candidate who brings the right attitude, communication skills, and problem-solving instinct. The team is looking for:

• →

  Provide live, real-time IT support for Front Office trading platforms during market hours.

• →

  Monitor real-time trading activity, investigate system behavior, and resolve production incidents.

• →

  Manage real-time market data configurations and support electronic execution workflows.

• →

  Collaborate closely with both Trading Desks and Development/Infrastructure teams.

• →

  Participate in change management, testing, and system release deployments.

• Languages: Fluent French and English (written and spoken).

• Technical Baseline: Prior experience in IT support with working knowledge of Linux/UNIX and basic SQL.
