Role Description: The Data Engineer will be responsible for designing, building, and maintaining robust, scalable, and efficient data pipelines and data warehousing solutions. This role is critical for ensuring high-quality data availability for trade evaluation, risk management, reporting, and analytics across the company.
Data Pipeline Development:
- Design, build, and optimise ETL/ELT pipelines for ingesting, transforming, and loading data from various sources (e.g., Alchemy, Murex, market data feeds) into data platforms (e.g., Quintessence, Snowflake).
- Ensure data quality, consistency, and accuracy throughout the pipelines.
Data Warehousing Lake Management:
- Design and implement data models for the data warehouse (e.g., Snowflake) to support analytical and reporting needs.
- Manage data lakes and ensure efficient data storage and retrieval.
Integration API Development:
- Develop and maintain data integration solutions, including APIs (e.g., leveraging MuleSoft) for seamless data exchange between systems.
- Support data mapping efforts for complex financial instruments and exposures.
Performance Optimisation:
- Monitor data pipeline performance, identify bottlenecks, and implement optimisation strategies.
- Ensure efficient processing of large data volumes required for risk calculations and valuations.
Data Governance Security:
- Implement data governance policies within data pipelines and data platforms.
- Ensure data security and compliance with regulatory requirements (e.g., data masking, access controls).
Troubleshooting Support:
- Provide expert-level support for data-related incidents and problems, including data discrepancies and pipeline failures.
- Collaborate with Business Analysts and reporting teams to ensure data meets their requirements.Â
- Proven experience (5+ years) as a Data Engineer or in a similar role.
