About the role

PBI Axiom, PBI Vector, and PBI Stratus are flagship products and services designed to help alternative asset managers tackle their data challenges in analytics, workflow, governance, and security.

Responsibilities

  • Build full-stack applications across our credit, private credit, and structured products platforms — backend services, APIs, data pipelines, and modern web front ends used by various business teams across the firm
  • Develop quantitative models and analytics for fixed-income and structured product valuation, cash flow projections, scenario analysis, and portfolio risk decomposition
  • Integrate third-party systems including Geneva (portfolio accounting), market data vendors, CRM platforms, and administrative platforms, design clean, well-tested adapters and reconciliation logic
  • Migrate legacy .NET/C# applications and SSRS reports to modern, scalable architectures (TypeScript/React front ends, Python or .NET services, cloud-deployed) with responsive UX across desktop and mobile
  • Own data quality end-to-end - ingestion, normalization, validation, and lineage - for firmwide positions, partnering with the data management team on governance and controls
  • Build reporting and BI spanning Tableau dashboards, internal web tooling, investor reporting, and ad-hoc requests for portfolio composition and DDQ responses
  • Translate business needs into engineering — gather requirements directly from PMs, analysts, risk, IR, and operations; document functional and technical specs; write clear UAT plans and lead testing
  • Ship like an engineer - write tests, use source control (GIT/TFS), open clean PRs, manage tickets in DevOps, deploy through CI/CD, and monitor what you ship in production
  • Use AI coding assistants well - accelerate delivery, reduce boilerplate, and improve code quality, while applying the verification, security, and review standards described later in this document
