What's in it for you?
  • Up to £250,000 DOE + benefits
  • Hybrid working from central London
  • Small team, no layers, no corporate theatre
  • Work directly alongside the founding team on critical, high‑impact problems from day one
Key requirements:
  • Advanced degree in mathematics, statistics, physics, computer science, engineering or similar essential
  • Experience in crypto, Web3 or capital markets essential
  • 2–4 years building real data infrastructure that others depended on

Day to day:

  • Normalising, validating and reconciling data, gap detection, dedup, schema drift
  • Owning storage and delivery: time‑series and historical datasets, APIs and client feeds, and the SLAs behind them
  • Building monitoring and alerting so data quality issues are caught internally before a client ever sees them
