  • Ensure daily availability of LAN-related applications and Kondor+ trading systems.
  • Install and update SWIFT Alliance, Checkpoint Firewall, and other network components.
  • Act as primary liaison between the bank and vendors for PC and LAN-related issues.
  • Manage and monitor Symantec Enterprise Vault and eVault Backup systems.
  • Assist in developing, implementing, and monitoring network security policies.
  • Maintain and test disaster recovery systems and update procedures.
  • Provide daily trading floor technology support for Reuters Data Feed, RMDS, DACS, Kobra, Data Mirror, and other market data tools.
What You Bring
  • Strong Windows networking skills with Windows Server and Exchange.
  • Extensive experience with Market Data systems (Reuters RMDS, DACS, Kondor), Red Hat Linux Enterprise (Squid Proxy, Smart Filter), MS Office, Outlook, and data communication equipment.
  • Database management experience with SQL Server and Sybase ASE.
  • Security expertise with Check Point Firewall, RSA SecureID, and VMWare vSphere.
  • Clear, confident communication skills and proven ability to prioritize effectively.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related discipline (required).
  • Previous experience in a NYC-based branch of an international bank strongly preferred.
Why Join Us?
  • Be part of a prestigious global bank with a long-standing presence in New York.
  • Work in a hybrid model: 3 days onsite in a collaborative, professional Midtown Manhattan office.
  • Enjoy competitive compensation and one of the best benefits packages in the industry.
  • Secure your future with a stable, long-term career opportunity at a respected institution.
