Describe your journey through Eclipse in terms of roles and responsibilities

In mid-2022, I joined the Rapid Application Development (RAD) team as a graduate software developer in the Sydney office. My role involved maintaining our Python script framework and assisting users to incorporate it into their automations. At the start of 2023, I underwent the graduate rotation program in Hong Kong where I gained insights into the other IT teams and their practices. After that, I focused on developing my business knowledge and technical skills to successfully pass my probation and become a software developer. I now have increased responsibilities, driving projects with significant business impact and collaborating closely with quants and traders to come up with solutions.

Describe your role and tell me about your typical work day

A big part of why I like working at Eclipse is the team. From requirements gathering to project collaboration, I enjoy learning from everyone at Eclipse who presents a variety of different ideas and experiences. Eclipse also organises social events where I enjoy interacting with my colleagues in a fun atmosphere outside of work which helps create a comfortable environment back in the office.
