Full Job Description
The Pepperstone story started in 2010. We know what it’s like to trade the world’s markets. Our team describes us as a place for the curious and the driven, and we like to do things a little differently; as a transformative global fintech we’re digital, nimble, connected, and united in our vision to create a better way to trade. We thrive on progress – for our clients and for ourselves. Our organisational culture is ever-evolving, vibrant, diverse, global and results focused. You’ll find our **700+** team across **12** regions and **9** time zones. **Product and team context** This role sits on the **Pepperstone Trading App** engineering thread within **Trading Experience (TREX)**. Related capabilities in the wider group include Mobile Platform, integrations (connectors), and the trading platform (Centrum). Department shape includes Mobile Platform plus Trading Experience teams (e.g. TREX-EVO, TREX-NOVA); exact team assignment and names are confirmed with your manager. The Trading App is a proprietary **iOS and Android** client for **CFD** trading and portfolio monitoring—charts, watchlists, execution, margin and P&L, funding, and multi-account types (e.g. Razor / Standard). It **complements** MetaTrader and cTrader; it does not replace them. The app connects to Centrum and other back-office systems via connectors, and integrates services such as SCA, Auth0, Segment, notifications, and others as the stack evolves. Delivery runs in **two-week Scrum** increments. A typical squad includes a tech lead or release captain, on the order of four developers and two manual QA engineers, with test automation as a parallel track. Engineering outcomes should reflect **CFD** realities: margin and leverage, contract-based P&L and financing, broker as counterparty, and region-specific regulation (e.g. FCA, ASIC, CySEC) affecting flows and copy. **The Role** The Senior Data Platform Engineer is a technical leader who empowers data, analytics and product teams across Pepperstone by b
