About the Role

Join a small, high-impact team responsible for the firm’s most critical datasets – including corporate actions, fundamentals, and index membership data. Rather than chasing breadth, this team focuses on data depth: building a clean, unified, and intelligent data layer that underpins all major decisions across the business.

We build distributed pipelines to ingest, clean, and expose daily datasets to internal teams. This is an engineering-first team with strong autonomy – ideal for someone who enjoys taking ownership of data quality, system design, and intelligent automation.

What You’ll Do

Own and improve automated data ingestion and processing pipelines
Design and maintain distributed systems for reliable, scalable data access
Identify and fix data anomalies using statistical and algorithmic approaches
Collaborate directly with internal users across research, trading, and operations
Anticipate future data needs and help evolve a minimal, robust data schema

Hard Requirements

Strong coding skills in a statically typed language (e.g. Go, Java, C++)
Solid background in distributed systems and relational databases
Comfortable with data analysis; knowledge of statistics or ML is a plus
Proactive problem-solver with a deep sense of ownership

Whilst we carefully review all applications, to all jobs, due to the high volume of applications we receive it is not possible to respond to those who have not been successful.
