The posting

Global proprietary trading firm with over a decade of success across equity derivatives, delta one, ETFs, commodity derivatives, and crypto. Technology drives our trading strategies, and we are building a brand‑new, next‑generation data platform to power both quantitative research and live trading. This is a high‑impact, long‑term role – not incremental fixes to legacy systems.

What You Will Do

  • Ensure reliability, uptime, and effective capacity planning for all data workloads.
  • Drive performance optimizations across both hardware and software for research and regulatory data retention.
  • Design and implement a centralized data framework and the supporting applications.
  • Manage, maintain, and expand dedicated hardware infrastructure for data systems.
  • Partner with researchers, traders, and engineers to align data workflows with business needs.
  • Build and lead a high‑performance engineering team, including mentoring and career development.
  • Define and deliver the data platform roadmap, balancing business and technical priorities.
  • Develop robust, maintainable, and high‑performing data pipelines.
  • Standardize ingestion, schema management, lineage, permissions, and audit processes.
  • Investigate upstream data sources, identify root causes of data issues, and implement sustainable fixes.

What You Offer

  • 10+ years of experience delivering production data platforms, with 2+ years leading and mentoring engineering teams.
  • Prior experience in quant trading, proprietary trading, or a buy‑side financial firm – this is essential.
  • Proven ability to design, scale, and optimize data pipelines and distributed systems in production.
  • Deep data platform fundamentals: batch and streaming processing, scalable table/metadata formats, object storage, and SQL.
  • Hands‑on experience building scalable ingestion and orchestration (scheduling, dependency management, backfills, recovery).
  • Experience with modern data architecture patterns and tradeoffs across performance, reliability, and cost.
  • Solid understanding of data storage and file/table lifecycle management.
  • Ability to make architectural decisions across IT solutions, system design, and implementation – ensuring maintainability and extensibility.
  • Demonstrated track record of improving reliability and operational excellence for data systems.
  • Excellent stakeholder communication skills with strong roadmap ownership.
  • Ability to drive large‑scale change while iterating safely (rollouts, learning from outcomes, adjusting direction).
  • Strong problem‑solving mindset with high attention to detail, including root‑cause analysis.
  • University degree in Computer Science or a related discipline.
  • Fluency in written and spoken English.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
