Develop reliable corporate action processing systems to ingest third-party data relating to dividends, stock splits, mergers, and other financial events, ensuring accurate calculations and updates to customer and partner holdings.
Extend existing reference data systems to support new financial instruments, asset classes, and market-specific requirements, including futures and prediction markets.
Build robust workflows for ingesting, validating, transforming, and processing external instrument and corporate action information.
Develop internal tools, automation, and operational workflows that reduce manual intervention and improve data quality, efficiency, and system reliability.
Contribute to the redesign and evolution of foundational asset data structures, helping define architectural standards and solutions with organisation-wide impact.
Take ownership of complex technical projects from initial requirements gathering and solution design through implementation, testing, deployment, and ongoing production support.
Identify and resolve performance, reliability, and scalability challenges across distributed services and interconnected systems.
Collaborate closely with engineering teams and business stakeholders that depend on reference data, ensuring smooth integration and coordination across services.

Strong system design fundamentals, including experience designing, developing, and evolving APIs and scalable backend architectures.
Proficiency in at least one strongly typed programming language, with the flexibility and willingness to work with Go.
Proven ability to take complex or ambiguous technical challenges from initial requirements through design, implementation, delivery, and production operations.

Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to explain technical decisions clearly and work effectively across multiple engineering and business teams.
Demonstrated senior-level engineering judgment, autonomy, accountability, and ownership of technical outcomes. Assessment will focus on demonstrated capabilities and impact rather than a strict minimum number of years of experience.
