This role also connects you with colleagues across Chicago, Amsterdam, and Sydney, all part of a truly global team reporting into a Global Lead.

  • Work with large data sets and data pipelines that support storage, retrieval, and analysis across the finance organization

Your Skills and Experience:
  • Degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Statistics, Econometrics, or another quantitative field
  • 2-5 years software engineering experience, ready to make an immediate impact
  • Strong Python and SQL skills; React experience is a plus
  • Hands-on experience with agentic coding tools (e.g. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor)
  • Comfortable with CI/CD pipelines (e.g. GitLab CI, Jira)
  • Experience working in containerized environments (e.g. Kubernetes, Docker)
  • Cloud experience required - AWS a plus
  • Exposure to finance processes or AI/ML engineering a plus
  • The ideal candidate thrives in a dynamic, fast-moving environment and enjoys the challenge of things changing quickly; they also blend technical depth with business savvy, have sharp analytical instincts and the interpersonal skills to bring people along with them
