Job of The Week: Make The Debt Markets More Transparent

We like to end every week with a special gift for our readers: we’re finding you a new job. So we spent part of the afternoon combing through our Career Center in search of the most interesting jobs. There are dozens to choose from, all categorized according to specialization. But one special one has been selected as our Job of The Week. Not surprisingly, with market attention focused on a new part of the fixed-income world each week, we’ve decided to choose a fixed-income data engineer position this week.

Demand for real-time and closing market data on CDS, Bonds, convertibles interest rates is skyrocketing as investors demand more accurate and timely information about various fixed income markets. Moody’s is looking for a Financial Data Engineer to help it improved its fixed income analysis and research. They want a minimum of three years in a data analysis or research role in the financial industry, and you probably shouldn’t be scared of looking at screens full of numbers.

Are they looking for anybody with experience wearing a blindfold and wielding a rubber stamp marked "AAA"?

Seriously - the previous layout was much better, plus you could leave comments easier - who the fuck over there is the creative head? You Carney?

@ Lemmerdeur

Arguably the best descriptions of the ratings agencies I've heard to date, wouldn't mind a little graphic if someone has some semblance of artistic talent

wtf are you guys moderating comments now too, or does it just take 10 minutes for 'em to show up?

I think three years experience is great, as long as it wasn't the last three years.

Is DealBreaker looking for a new web site designer? Honestly...

Is DB looking for a new web site designer? Honestly.

No, butt apparently it does take a minute or two for comments to post, so much for fixing one of the few major issues with the old site design/functionality...

In other news is anyone watching the Kimbo fight sat night?

I like the instant gratification of seeing your post right away. At least you know the comment posted, and don't resend if you have a touch of obsessive/compulsive disorder.

I note guest @ 4:06 and 4:07 found the new setup frustrating. (Not saying he/she has OCD.)

Won't db have more repeat posts that irritate everyone?

WSJ still allows comments to post instantaneously. NYTimes is the most annoying. They hold up posts for as long as 6 hours and the comments still aren't funny.

lemmerdeur, your post is really great!
