What You Will Need

• Bachelor's in Computer Science or related field.
• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a proven track record building complex, data-intensive backend systems.
• 5+ years of hands-on experience with GCP or equivalent cloud stack, building and scaling production-grade services.
• Deep expertise in Python for backend and API systems; proficiency in at least one strongly typed language (Rust, C++, or Java), with Java being a strong plus.
• Mastery in designing large-scale distributed systems — asynchronous patterns, streaming, queuing, caching strategies, and robust observability (logging, metrics, tracing).
• Strong command of relational databases and SQL — schema design, query optimization, indexing — alongside NoSQL, in-memory (Redis), and columnar stores (BigQuery, Snowflake, Redshift).
• Proven experience building and operating large-scale data pipelines — both streaming and batch — integrating heterogeneous financial data sources with high reliability and throughput.
• 3+ years of experience managing or working closely with globally distributed engineering teams.
• Exceptional communication skills — able to articulate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, and to influence engineering direction across teams without direct authority.
• Track record of shipping high-quality products in unstructured, fast-moving environments with full autonomy from conception to deployment.
• Demonstrated passion for corporate finance, capital markets, and financial data — you understand the standards, workflows, and zero-tolerance for data quality issues that investment professionals demand.
