Project Description

---

The Project is for the Large International Investment Bank, Fixed Income & Currencies line of business. It is planned to create a brand new Cash Settlement Engine (CSE). CSE will deliver a single cross-product settlement and payment initiation platform for cash products reducing the cost of ownership and improving operational efficiency. CSE should not be viewed as a standalone monolithic application running on its own dedicated infrastructure. Instead, CSE will form part of an Operations eco-system where a set of cooperating services will handle Cash Settlements, documentation (DICE), and Client Self Service. CSE will be hosted in the internal cloud with a clear glide path toward a future external cloud hosting solution.

Modern technologies are going to be used in new platforms: Java 8/11, Spring Boot, Angular, Kafka, PostgreSQL/Oracle, and Google Cloud. 2-3 Scrum PoD are going to be involved which consists of full stack, java backend, angular developers, and QA automation engineers.
