About Your Team UI Brokerage team is seeking an experienced Senior Java Developer to join a team building high-performance, mission-critical trading and brokerage systems used by clients and third parties around the globe. Our platforms power real-time trading in stocks, futures, options, and other financial instruments, supporting a demanding, high-availability user base.

Write and maintain clear technical documentation, including documentation for new interfaces, and regression tests to ensure platform stability. Collaborate with business analysts, product managers, and other developers to translate requirements into high-quality, well-architected software. Investigate and resolve complex technical issues across the stack, providing escalated (third-level) support as needed. Stay current with relevant tools, libraries, frameworks, and techniques—including modern AI-assisted development tools—that can improve platform quality and delivery speed.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
