Enterprise Engineering: Our platform-facing teams develop cutting-edge systems to run our business. Our engineers provide tools, applications and platforms such as the Firm’s networks, computing hardware, operating systems and databases for the Firm's trading applications, mobile applications and other end-user applications.
