We're hiring for the go-to platform in commodity trading, the tool trading desks rely on to make pre-trade calls.

~$42M Series B in February 2025 and scaling fast ~ Around 130 people across offices in Switzerland, London and Spain, with the Spain hub set to keep growing through 2026 ~ Investing heavily in AI, including a new Forward Deployed Engineer function built for enterprise clients ~ A lean, senior team that moves like an early-stage Stripe or Palantir: high bar, real ownership, minimal red tape Data is the backbone of that ambition. 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.

About the role Day-to-day: Lead pipeline architecture: 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 What you'll need: ~7+ years as a data or software engineer with production‑grade data systems delivered ~2+ years in a product‑focused organisation, working cross‑functionally ~ Proven track record scaling data‑intensive pipelines in production ~ Hands‑on with Flink or 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.
