**Job Title:** Software Development Engineer FinTech & Financial Analytics
**Location:** Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India (On-site)
**Type:** Full-Time
**About the Role**
Nexus Equity Growth Fund, a Category III Alternative Investment Fund (AIF) based in Ahmedabad, is looking for a technically strong and self-driven Software Development Engineer to work directly with our investment and operations team. You'll build production-ready technology that powers the fund's analytics, trading research, and day-to-day operations — with significant ownership and direct exposure to financial markets and fund management. This is a hands-on role for someone who wants to see their code used in real investment decisions.
**What You'll Work On**
- Design and build financial analytics and interactive dashboards for trading strategies, portfolio monitoring, and live Indian equity/commodity markets (NSE, BSE, MCX).
- Develop and maintain a backtesting framework to evaluate trading strategies against historical market data, including performance and risk metrics.
- Build quantitative tools for investment research, signal generation, and portfolio decision support.
- Implement machine learning pipelines for market data analysis and predictive modeling.
- Develop internal automation tools for the fund's operations and workflows.
- Own the fund's IT systems and security infrastructure — manage internal systems, data security, access controls, and basic infrastructure reliability.
- Evaluate and review third-party technology proposals and vendor systems on behalf of the fund.
- Work closely with fund managers and analysts to turn business requirements into working solutions, and present your work regularly.
**What We're Looking For**
- Strong programming fundamentals in Python, JavaScript, or similar.
- Familiarity with data analysis libraries (Pandas, NumPy) and ML frameworks (scikit-learn, TensorFlow/Keras).
- Ability to build and deploy full-stack web applications independently.
- Working knowledge of databases and cloud infrastructure, with a security-conscious mindset.
- Genuine interest in financial markets, investment management, or quantitative finance.
- Self-driven, with the ability to take projects end-to-end with minimal supervision.
- Good communication skills — you'll interact directly with fund managers and analysts.
**Good to Have**
- Exposure to Indian financial markets — equity, commodity derivatives, IPOs, or AIF operations.
- Experience building dashboards with Streamlit or Plotly.
- Experience designing or maintaining backtesting/trading systems.
- Understanding of IT security practices, system administration, or DevOps.
- Knowledge of Indian financial compliance concepts (SEBI regulations, GST, TDS).
**Why Join Us**
- Direct exposure to fund management and real financial markets from day one.
- High ownership and the freedom to shape the fund's technology stack end-to-end.
- Competitive compensation based on experience and skill.
