  • Partner with the industry’s top investment professionals, quantitative researchers, and data scientists to design, develop, and deploy solutions that answer fundamental questions about financial markets
  • Build tools and automation capabilities for data pipelines that improve the efficiency, quality and resiliency of our data platform
  • Drive the evolution of our data strategy by challenging the status quo and identifying opportunities to enhance our platform

YOUR SKILLS & TALENTS:
