Every AI initiative and every trader-facing insight runs through the pipelines this team owns, which makes this a genuinely architecture-level seat, not just an execution role.

Design, build and evolve scalable ETL frameworks powering real-time and analytical processing Own platform health:

Optimise for latency, throughput and reliability as data volumes scale Bridge data and backend:

Work closely with engineering and stakeholders to align infra with product and trader-facing outcomes Drive architecture decisions:

Shape pipeline reliability,



data quality and scalability across the platform Shape target architecture:

Define how data gets ingested, transformed, stored and served as the platform grows Mentor engineers:

Through design reviews, technical discussions and hands-on knowledge sharing

Spark

(stream and batch processing) Comfortable across Kotlin, Python and TypeScript Equally sharp on high-level architecture and low-level implementation Experience deploying data infra on AWS or GCP Hands-on with Kafka, Redis and/or clustered Postgres

Who should apply? A hands-on Staff-level data engineer who wants ownership over architecture, not just code, and who's energised by being handed a problem instead of a spec. Bonus points if you've worked with Apache Iceberg, dbt, or built data infra to support AI agents.
