WHY THIS ROLE IS IMPORTANT TO US

Our team focuses on two critical pillars: securing the software development lifecycle and building internal tooling that empowers engineering teams across SimCorp. We work closely with development teams to identify and address security risks at the code level, and we build the automation and utilities that make developers more effective and secure by default.

• Write clean, maintainable code following object-oriented design principles and established patterns.
• Participate in code reviews, contributing to and learning from team standards.
• Collaborate with engineering teams to understand their needs and deliver practical solutions.
• Maintain and improve existing systems, including diagnosing and fixing bugs, resolving security vulnerabilities, modernizing legacy components, and adding new functionality.
• Support continuous improvement of our development workflows and tooling.

WHAT WE VALUE

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a closely related field; or about to complete one. Equivalent demonstrable knowledge will also be considered.
• Solid understanding of object-oriented programming principles.
• Knowledge of secure coding practices and awareness of common vulnerabilities (e.g., injection attacks, input validation, authentication weaknesses).
• Proficiency with Git and version control workflows.
• Understanding of relational databases and the ability to write correct, efficient SQL in transactional systems.
• Strong fundamentals: we value depth over breadth.

NICE-TO-HAVE

• Experience with C# and the .NET ecosystem.
• Familiarity with Microsoft SQL Server.
• Exposure to cloud environments, particularly Microsoft Azure.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and automated testing.
• Familiarity with Agile development practices.
• Good communication skills in English (written and spoken).
