Backend Developer (Sales Analytics)

  • Hong Kong
  • Negotiable
  • Contract

About the job

 

We're looking for an autonomous back-end developer to own the engineering layer behind a Sales Performance Dashboard for a banking and financial services client, with particular emphasis on wealth management. This sits inside the Data & Analytics group, but it is an engineering build, not an analytics seat: the focus is shipping microservices and APIs that surface governed, entitlement-controlled data to dashboards and other consuming systems. The right candidate is comfortable navigating a layered bank data environment, owns problems end-to-end, and can turn shifting business asks into secure, production-grade technical solutions.

 

This is a 12-month contract onsite role in Hong Kong.

 

What You'll Be Doing

Backend & Microservices Engineering

  • Architect, build, and operate the microservices layer that drives sales performance reporting
  • Build secure, scalable REST APIs that connect this platform to other internal systems
  • Hold services to production standards: performance, reliability, monitoring/observability, and clean operational practices

Data Ecosystem & Integration

  • Partner with business and technical stakeholders to map how data moves end-to-end, including frontline workflows and finance-aligned metric definitions
  • Connect to upstream and downstream sources, and help troubleshoot data quality issues affecting reporting
  • Tune queries and access patterns so analytics/reporting workloads run efficiently in a banking context

Security, Access & Governance

  • Build in strong protections for sensitive financial data
  • Apply authorization models so what data a user sees lines up with their entitlements and governance rules

Stakeholder Engagement & Delivery

  • Work directly with business stakeholders to pin down requirements and recommend workable technical approaches
  • Partner with cross-functional teams, including offshore counterparts, to deliver in agile increments
  • Adapt quickly to shifting priorities and push work through to completion without close supervision

 

What We're Looking For

Experience

  • 5–8 years in backend/microservices engineering, API development, or other data-intensive engineering work
  • Banking or financial services background strongly preferred; wealth management exposure (products, processes, or analytics) is a plus

Technical Skills

  • Java + Spring Boot OR Python + FastAPI
  • Strong REST API design, testing, and production-support experience

Data & Platform Fundamentals

  • Comfortable working with relational/analytical data stores such as PostgreSQL, BigQuery, or similar
  • Able to design, optimize, and debug queries and access patterns for reporting/analytics use cases

Engineering Practices

  • Solid grounding in API security (OAuth/token-based auth, least-privilege access)
  • Used to working in agile, iterative delivery cycles
  • Comfortable with Git/GitHub for source control and team collaboration

Communication & Working Style

  • Can explain technical trade-offs clearly to non-technical stakeholders, in writing and verbally
  • Self-directed; comfortable diagnosing issues and driving toward resolution independently
  • Reads/writes English fluently enough for daily collaboration with global teams

 

Nice to Have

  • Frontend literacy (not required) enough to understand how backend/API choices ripple into the user experience
  • Exposure to BI/dashboard tools such as Tableau, Power BI, or Looker
  • Familiarity with GCP services (BigQuery, Cloud Storage, Cloud Functions) and/or containerized deployments
  • Awareness of data security and regulatory expectations specific to banking

Business Transformation Consultant

  • Hong Kong
  • Negotiable
  • Contract

A global organisation is in the middle of a large, complex transformation. They need someone on the ground in Hong Kong to make sure it's done right and within the local reality — getting processes documented the right way, people genuinely ready for change, and leadership kept informed every step of the way.

 

You'll primarily work across three areas: shaping and reviewing how local processes are designed and documented, driving change management so adoption actually happens, and keeping governance tight so nothing gets lost between global and local.

 

Day to day, you'll be:

  • Presenting process templates and methodology to local teams, then reviewing what they produce — checking for completeness, consistency, and the right level of detail
  • Preparing and running local design workshops and post-playback configuration validation sessions
  • Consolidating playback outputs and chasing open points until they're closed
  • Maintaining the L4 Process Book, capturing local roles, interfaces, and any approved deviations from the global standard
  • Running and refining Change Impact Assessments and building out the local Change Management Plan — covering communications, training, and readiness
  • Preparing materials for local change activities and working alongside local Change Leads to get them executed
  • Participating in weekly territory governance, tracking actions and decisions, and escalating risks or key decisions to the global programme when needed

 

You'll be a strong fit if you have:

  • Solid experience on enterprise transformation programmes — ERP rollouts or similar global process standardisation work
  • Hands-on ownership of L4 process documentation — swim lanes, role mapping, deviation handling — not just familiarity with it
  • Change management artefacts you've personally built and delivered: impact assessments, change and training plans, readiness dashboards
  • Experience reviewing and giving structured feedback on other people's process or change deliverables
  • HK or APAC project background preferred
  • HR programme experience is a plus; Prosci/ACMP certification and Cantonese/Mandarin are welcome bonuses

 

📍This is an urgent contract role and is based in Hong Kong.
