Help integrate with the world's largest banks at Standard Treasury (YC S13)

Job Description Build the glue that integrates Standard Treasury’s platforms with some of the world’s largest financial institutions. A passion for reverse-engineering illogical choices and exposing clean interfaces to internal developers is a must. You should love puzzles. We don’t expect that you’re an expert at (or maybe even heard of) IBM WebSphere or Oracle SOA technologies, but you shouldn’t be scared of them, either. The idea of working with a COBOL engineer at a bank, if that’s what it takes, should excite you -- even if it drives you a little crazy. We expect that you’ve proven yourself patient and versatile in the past. Great candidates will have experience developing software with queuing, caching, concurrent processing, event monitoring, and management. Requirements Experience with Python. Experience with Java, Scala, or C# in an enterprise environment a plus. Knowledge of and experience working with a variety of protocols and formats involved in bank integrations, such as HTTP, SOAP, JSON, XML Schema, WS-, RMI, SAML, OAuth, etc. The ability to pick up new programming languages and systems very quickly. Deep love of building elegant, maintainable, and well-documented code. Abstracting and refactoring should be a passion, not a chore. Drive to learn new things and go above and beyond the call of duty. Always working to improve yourself and constructively support the team around you. Bonus: Experience with WebLogic, WebSphere, and other J2EE technologies used by large financial institutions. Bonus: Experience with security technologies such as X.509 PKI, XML digital signatures, SAML, and OAuth.
