What is this position about?

This role is part of a Market Data initiative focused on building robust, scalable data and API-driven systems that support modern analytics, ML-driven workflows, and agentic solutions. The Python Data Engineer will work closely with cross-functional teams to design, implement, and maintain data pipelines and services that power market-data products.

This position requires strong Python expertise, solid data engineering fundamentals, and the ability to collaborate effectively with distributed teams working primarily in the Eastern Time (EST) zone.

• Build, maintain, and optimize Python-based data pipelines for market-data use cases.

• Design and implement FastAPI services for data ingestion, transformation, and model-enabled workflows.

• Support ML and agentic systems, including dataset preparation, feature extraction, and LLM-assisted automation.

• Develop prompt-driven and tool-calling workflows integrated into data processing pipelines.

• Collaborate closely with data engineers, analysts, and ML teams to deliver reliable, production-ready solutions.

• Apply best practices in ETL/ELT design, testing, and observability.

• Ensure data quality, documentation, and maintainable code across pipelines and services.

• Contribute to continuous improvement of data engineering standards and practices.

• Strong experience developing with Python, including data processing libraries such as Pandas or PySpark.

• Hands-on experience building APIs and microservices using FastAPI.

• Solid SQL knowledge and experience working with relational databases.

• Understanding of ETL/ELT principles and production data pipelines.

• Familiarity with ML or agentic workflows (e.g., LLM automation, embeddings pipelines, or model-orchestrated tasks).

• Experience using Git and CI/CD workflows.

• Ability to work autonomously while collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams.

Nice to have:

• Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, or Azure.

• Familiarity with workflow orchestration tools (Airflow, Prefect, or Dagster).

• Experience with Docker and API integrations.

• Understanding of model lifecycle components such as feature stores and inference flows.

• Exposure to financial market data and APIs (e.g., Bloomberg or Refinitiv).
