[Aman]

Hi,

I am undergraduate student from India.I am planning to do MS in Financial Engineering/Computational Finance in 1-2 years.I have an opportunity to interview with Tower Research Capital for http://www.tower-research.com/Trade_Support_Engineer_-_India.html role.
Can you please let me know how will this be seen as a work experience.

It would be nice if anybody presently in this type of role can reply

Please reply someone..... I need to decide on this within a week.

I'm doing MBA, not MFE. Also, I do not work in a trading position.

My opinion is that this would be good experience. The description makes it sound like a mix between data analysis/research and minor programming. Since you'd be in a high frequency/algorithmic trading environment, I would say this is good experience if you're looking into a MFE (but once again, this is just my opinion).
