• I worked on a re-engineering project developed by ION. The old ION back office system(s), were being reworked using Java and the ION platform. It was a complete accounting and management system for use by traders and brokers of futures and options. The project used information that was entered via feeds (or manually) and produced End of day (EOD) results based on algorithms applied by exchanges (delivery, exercises, assignments, closeouts, margin calculation etc). The project integrated with other ION products to produce customer/user reports for EOD regulatory reporting as well.
