About this role

What team will you be on?

You will be part of the Exchange Traded Funds (ETF) Systems Development team, which is part of the wider global ETF technology team responsible for building the software systems used by our clients to buy and sell ETFs. We are building an Angular based single page web application designed to support the future growth of this high-profile business area. We are closely aligned with our Portfolio Managers and the Global Markets team to ensure we are delivering maximum value for the firm as we deliver on this multi-year transformation. We are proud of our track record of delivery while focusing heavily on software quality, scalability and automation.

Why is your role important?

ETF's are a huge growth area and Blackrock is heavily invested in the ETF business. It is a central pillar of our goal to allow more people to experience financial wellbeing. This role is directly connected to that vision and presents a significant opportunity to have a real impact on the way we build and deliver software. You will help to lead a small team of technically strong key individuals guiding the team and implementing our vision for future-ready, highly available systems. As a large technology organization there are great opportunities for the right individual to make a lasting impression on the team and the potential for wider impact and career progression beyond that.

  • Hands on development while leading other developers to build our next generation ETF platform
  • Work with UX designers to build easy-to-use & intuitive screens that will generate user delight
  • Actively participate in the team's agile delivery process, completing sprint tasks and writing high quality code, unit tests and automated integration tests to move features to production.
  • Provide high quality technical input to team discussions on system design, seeing those efforts all the way through to final delivery.
  • Mentor more junior members of the team, providing code style and architectural input through pair programming, reviewing pull requests and team meetings.

What are we looking for?
  • 7+ years experience developing internet facing web applications using Angular 11 and ngRx
  • Experience designing and building using API-First principles using at least one of REST/gPRC.
  • Strong analytical problem-solving skills with an ability to pick up new concepts quickly.
  • Demonstrable experience using modern software engineering tools such as git, maven, unit testing and integration testing tools, mocking frameworks.
  • A willingness and ability to mentor less experienced members of the team.
  • Friendly, positive and can-do attitude

Our benefits

To help you stay energized, engaged and inspired, we offer a wide range of benefits including a strong retirement plan, tuition reimbursement, comprehensive healthcare, support for working parents and Flexible Time Off (FTO) so you can relax, recharge and be there for the people you care about.

Our hybrid work pilot

BlackRock's current hybrid work pilot is designed to help you experience the best of both worlds: the opportunity to connect with colleagues in person and the flexibility to work remotely, with greater time to focus on what's important to you. In line with local health guidance and regulations, employees are generally expected to work 3 days in the office and 2 days from home (on average) each week. For some business groups, more time may be required in the office, while greater flexibility may be in place for others. Our "One BlackRock" culture means you'll be supported to collaborate with your new colleagues while bringing your full self to work - wherever you are.

The health, safety and well-being of our people will always be our top priorities; we will continue to monitor local conditions and health advisories in making decisions about our work environments.

This mission would not be possible without our smartest investment - the one we make in our employees. It's why we're dedicated to creating an environment where our colleagues feel welcomed, valued and supported with networks, benefits and development opportunities to help them thrive.
