SkillStorm is seeking a Scala / Big Data Developer for our client in New York, NY. Candidates must be able to work on SkillStorm's W2; not a C2C position. EOE, including disability/vets.

Job Description:

• Financial regulation for banks has increased dramatically over the past few years. This role is to work on the Global Banking and Markets (GBAM) Non-Financial Regulatory Reporting (NFRR) Data Delivery program, a new initiative to define and implement consistent and efficient regulatory reporting processes that adhere to enterprise standards, simplify controls and enable re-use.
• As part of this initiative, we are developing a Data Processing Framework using Scala and Big Data technologies for authoring domain-specific-language (DSL) components to seamlessly combine data from multiple data sources. The DSL components interpret transformation rules written in a configuration style syntax that can be applied to one or more standard data sets to produce a transformed data set. This framework provides a unified language for describing the data needs of a report.
• Enables users to seamlessly retrieve and combine data from multiple sources
• Enables users to author reports without having to worry about the mechanics of actually retrieving, filtering, projecting, or aggregating the data
• Ensures proper versioning of the report definitions and the running of the reports as they existed at specific points in time
• Ensures that the system is scalable enough to run hundreds of reports in parallel, if require

• Design parameterized and configurable modules for DSL Extensions
• Develop DSL for the data outputs needed for NFRR Reports
• Integrate Code Repository and Management

Qualifications:
