Requirements:

  • At least 5+ years of experience in quantitative software development at top-tier financial firm

Responsibilities:

  • You'll design, develop and own a generalized system for generating business-critical reports from our backend data platform.
  • You'll need to develop a deep understanding of the business context in which the team operates and to use this to drive momentum and communication between engineers and stakeholders in different functions across the company.

Requirements:

  • Direct experience architecting and building critical financial/regulatory/customer reporting or data transformation systems
  • Direct experience building alerting, observability and monitoring into production systems, and with the tools for doing so (e.g. Datadog, Grafana, Prometheus)
  • Direct experience designing tight SLO (>0.99) workflows on scheduling systems at scale (e.g. AirFlow)

They have small and agile teams, so working closely with product and other stakeholder teams is essential, as is understanding and being able to contribute to other parts of the codebase. Currently have a distributed team of about 40 engineers.

You must be an expert-level programmer in Python and posses excellent communication skills to make rapid progress autonomously with a distributed team.

This role can sit in New York, San Francisco, or Remote Total compensation can range from $500,000 - 1.2 million (base, bonus + equity)
