Job Description & How to Apply Below
What You'll Do
• Build, maintain, and troubleshoot ETL pipelines (Airflow, Dagster, or similar).
• Ingest and deeply understand new datasets - their structure, quirks, and business meaning.
• Maintain high-quality, well-documented datasets used across the organization.
• Partner with non-engineering stakeholders to understand data needs and guide them to the right sources.
• Evaluate data vendors and ensure we use the best data for each use case.
What We're Looking For
• Strong Python and SQL skills.
• Experience building data pipelines; familiarity with Spark or Pandas a plus.
• Strong attention to detail and persistence in debugging data issues.
• Clear communication skills, especially with non-technical audiences.
• 1-3 years of experience (or strong internships); senior candidates also welcome.
Who Thrives Here
• Curious, detail-oriented engineers who like diving deep into complex datasets.
• People who enjoy owning problems end-to-end and defining their own requirements.
• Engineers who build reliable, maintainable systems and prefer fast, iterative execution.
Why Join
• High-impact role: the data you manage powers investment decisions across the firm.
• Broad exposure to many types of financial and alternative data.
• Opportunity to shape a growing data function and work with teams across the entire company.
Qualifications
• Strong Python and SQL skills.
• Experience building data pipelines; familiarity with Spark or Pandas a plus.
• Strong attention to detail and persistence in debugging data issues.
• Clear communication skills, especially with non-technical audiences.
• 1-3 years of experience (or strong internships); senior candidates also welcome.
Why is This a Great Opportunity
You are building data infrastructure that directly drives investment decisions. The pipelines you own power research, analytics, and live decision making across the firm. This is not abstract data work. It affects capital allocation.
You work directly with quants, data scientists, and investors. You are not buried behind layers of product or management. You see how data is used, where it breaks, and how to make it better. That feedback loop is fast and real.
You get broad exposure to high value datasets. Market data, alternative data, vendor feeds, internal research outputs. You learn how data actually behaves in production, not how it looks in a demo.
