About the Role
Data sits at the heart of how this hedge fund invests, and they're looking for a Data Engineer to help strengthen the infrastructure behind its investment strategies.
You'll work closely with Portfolio Managers, Quants, and Risk teams, building data products that help them research opportunities, test strategies, and make informed investment decisions. The focus is on getting complex financial data right—from vendor feeds and data quality through to integration, scalability, and performance. Your work will directly influence how investment teams access and use data across the business.

Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

What They're Looking For
- 4+ years' experience in financial services, ideally within a hedge fund or a Front Office / Quant environment.
- Strong Python and SQL, with C++ experience beneficial.
- Experience with Snowflake, Redshift, or BigQuery, alongside cloud-based data infrastructure.
- Hands-on experience with data pipelines, orchestration, production monitoring, and automated data quality.
- An understanding of market data, reference data, and how financial datasets are used within investment workflows.
