Job Summary:

MarketAxess operates an electronic trading platform that enables fixed-income market participants to trade corporate bonds. They are seeking a hands-on Engineering Manager to lead their UI Platform team, responsible for building and maintaining the frontend infrastructure for their web applications. This role involves collaborating with engineering teams, mentoring engineers, and shaping the platform roadmap.

Responsibilities:

• Work closely with the Head of X-Pro and UI Platform to implement and evolve the strategic direction for the UI Platform.

• Take a hands-on role in designing, building, and delivering the core services your team owns — from implementation through testing, deployment, and support.

• Collaborate directly with other squad leads and engineers to define architectural standards and make pragmatic decisions that balance long-term vision with present-day tradeoffs.

• Mentor engineers through hands-on code-pairing, thoughtful code reviews, and unblock the team to keep momentum high.

• Stay engaged in evaluating tools and frameworks by actively experimenting with them, prototyping new ideas, and recommending adoption paths.

• Work directly with Product and Engineering stakeholders to ensure plans are executable and user needs are clearly understood.

Qualifications:

Required:

• 10+ years of progressive software engineering experience, including 3+ years leading global teams – responsible for setting team goals, conducting performance reviews, managing compensation, and supporting career development

• Strong architectural foundation, with practical experience designing and implementing cloud-native systems, event-driven architectures (e.g., Kafka), and scalable frontend/backend platforms.

• Experience working with desktop interoperability frameworks such as Interop.io (formerly Glue42 + Finsemble), OpenFin, or similar technologies, and an understanding of how they support multi-window, multi-app trading workflows.

• Demonstrated ability to lead engineering teams — setting direction, mentoring developers, and maintaining a high bar for code quality, architecture, and delivery.

• Experience working in agile environments with distributed teams, using tools like JIRA and Confluence to manage delivery and collaboration.

• Comfort working across hybrid infrastructures (on-prem and cloud), with fluency in modern DevOps practices including CI/CD, monitoring, automated testing (e.g., Playwright, Cypress), and resilience engineering.

• Solid understanding of API and microservice architectures, structured and unstructured databases, and real-time systems — including logging, monitoring, and process automation.

• Ability to collaborate with product managers, designers, and engineering leads to turn user needs into platform capabilities, and experience using OKRs or similar frameworks to measure success.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to clearly articulate architectural decisions and influence stakeholders across technical and non-technical domains.

• A track record of practical, hands-on leadership and problem solving, with a bias toward action and a mindset rooted in experimentation and continuous learning.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
