Senior Back-End Developer

Regulatory oversight is constant, and the compliance department is one of the largest in the company. Ochrepoint manages assets for more than 200,000 clients through 120 offices. Dress is business casual, and suits come out for client meetings.

The position

You'll work mostly on server-side code: services, queues, databases and the glue between them. Little to no frontend work.

• Strong SQL and relational data modeling skills.
