Description

  • Newly created team, Functional and Technical testing of Credit Risk Systems.
  • Leading Australian Financial Services Organisation.
  • Lucrative contract role, 6 months + Ext, Melbourne CBD.
My client, a multi-national Investment-Bank, has recently initiated a large scale transformation program and growth strategy to dramatically increase in size over the next five to ten years. The bank will be strengthening their already prevalent Australian businesses but will also grow their Asia Pacific presence to become a serious global markets player in the region. Due to this growth they are looking for a seasoned test analyst with extensive understanding of Financial Markets - Credit Risk.

This team has recently been created to further develop Credit Risk technology systems that are used to calculate the organizations derivative exposure for limits management and capital.

You'll draw on your "hands on" experience across both functional and non-functional testing and strong business side knowledge to write and execute test cases for the core Credit Risk Engine. To be successful you'll draw your experience developing Credit Risk calculation systems, the core engines that crunch the vast amount of data associated with Credit Risk analysis. Batch runs can generate up to 250M records so experience running Monte Carlo simulations would be a distinct advantage.

Requirements of the role:

  • 4 - 5 years minimum: functional and non-functional testing experience.
  • Experience testing "Credit Risk Calculation" Systems (Essential).
  • Experience testing Real Time, Message based systems.
  • Good organizational skills and high attention to detail.
