IT can’t get more complex than Infrastructures in the financial industry – Stability, integrity, performance and absolutely no tolerance for mistakes. You´ll have the chance to view forward looking cutting edge technologies. The tasks are exciting and require the same amount of skill and expertise.

Our focuses lie in the functional handling of trading, settlement and market data systems as well as in the technical integration into global system architectures.
Interfaces | Connectivity
The above mentioned systems require a lively exchange of data. The communication with each other is as important as external connections to, for example, market data providers, settlement systems, clearing houses or stock exchanges.
