- MARGO is a tech-native consultancy delivering high value-added IT expertise to the financial services industry.
- We operate in complex Front Office environments where technology, trading activity and production constraints intersect. Our consultants support and operate mission-critical trading systems used by Front Office, trading and risk teams, in contexts where responsiveness, reliability and technical understanding are essential.
- Joining MARGO means working in demanding Front Office environments, while benefiting from a human-sized structure, close follow-up and tailored training paths.
- You don't need to know everything on day one. If you have strong foundations, the team can teach you:
- Our specific Front Office trading systems, electronic execution workflows, and market data platforms.
- Advanced Linux/UNIX commands, internal scripting, and complex production investigation tools.
- The intricate technical setup of a Tier-1 Investment Bank’s trading infrastructure.
- Deep-dive financial domain knowledge, asset class mechanics, and trade lifecycle details.
- We are looking for a candidate who brings the right attitude, communication skills, and problem-solving instinct. The team is looking for:
- Fluent French & English: Strong communication skills in both languages to interact smoothly across teams.
- Genuine Financial Curiosity: An eager mindset that looks "beyond the database." You don’t need to be a quant, but you should actually want to understand the real financial products (bonds, swaps, equities) behind the data strings.
- Pragmatism & Resourcefulness: A smart problem-solver who prioritizes ruthlessly. You secure quick wins for simple issues and avoid falling down one-hour technical rabbit holes over minor glitches while traders are waiting.
- The "Translator" Ability: Social intelligence to act as a bridge between two different worlds. You know how to talk to a stressed trader without drowning them in server logs, and you can explain issues to developers without confusing them with trading jargon.
- Solid IT Foundations: Basic-to-intermediate experience with Linux/UNIX command line and SQL for querying databases.
