About This Team
We are Liquidnet?s Business Intelligence team. What does that mean?

We are responsible for helping Liquidnet grow by leveraging its data for all aspects of its business.

We are creative and passionate technologists who encourage our teammates to break from convention, experiment with new technologies and teach us new things. Our technology is complex and exciting, and we offer a dynamic and collaborative environment where awesome ideas are generated at all levels and we have the freedom and resources to run with them.

Our suite of end-user products utilizes state of the art web technologies and relies heavily on open source solutions. The stack is built on Backbone.js, jQuery, SASS, and Groovy on Grails backed by Java data services that run on Jetty, Groovy on Grails, Spring, and Hibernate with MongoDB and Oracle as data stores.

About You
Like us, you don?t just code for work but build applications because it is a true passion.

You are a regular user of StackOverflow, GitHub, or BitBucket and follow tech blogs that appear in your twitter or Y Combinator stream. You?ve contemplated launching a startup or have built an iOS or Android app in your spare time. You will use Eclipse, Visual Studio, or Idea but have a subversive desire to revert to vim or emacs.

You?re a true technologist and enjoy prototyping with different web frameworks and are a fan of clean, elegant code. You?re curious about functional programming and have experimented with Clojure, Scala, Haskell, or Erlang. Maybe you?ve even contemplated a plan to become the next internet billionaire with your superhuman web development powers. We like that.

A lot.

The Role
We are looking for you to transform the way Liquidnet leverages financial market data by developing the next generation of Global Business Intelligence Applications.
