*We are looking for Poland based candidate. 


At Capco Poland, we’re not just another consultancy - we’re the spark behind digital transformation in the financial world. As a global leader in technology and management consulting, we thrive on helping clients tackle the toughest challenges across banking, payments, capital markets, wealth, and asset management.

 

PROJECT OVERWIEW:

The team is working on extending Client's existing, business-critical equities trading system. The system is a low-latency, Java-based trading platform covering the full trading lifecycle and operating under strict performance and stability requirements. The platform covers the full equities trading lifecycle within a fully real-time, latency-sensitive environment. It includes market data ingestion and processing, pricing and quoting, order entry and order management (OMS), execution and smart order routing (SOR/EMS), pre-trade risk checks, and post-trade enrichment and reporting. All components operate without batch processing, ensuring continuous, low-latency performance across the system.

From a business standpoint, the platform supports core Front Office functions including trading, execution, and order management, with a strong focus on equities and complex financial instruments. Engineers collaborate closely with Front Office–aligned IT teams, contributing to systems that are critical to trading operations while requiring solid domain understanding of capital markets products and workflows.
