Data Engineer - Digital Asset Manager - Up to £100,000 + Discretionary Bonus
Summary
Data engineer at a UK digital asset investment firm that runs computer-driven crypto trading algorithms. You build and own production data pipelines (Python, SQL/Postgres, Airflow, AWS) serving quant, finance, operations, and engineering teams, working hybrid with four days a week in the office.
You get to own your work, sit at the heart of a genuinely interesting business, and help build something that actually matters.
This is a digital asset investment firm running computer-driven trading algorithms across cryptocurrencies, digital assets and derivatives. The technology is the business, and data engineering sits right at the centre of it.
No two days look the same here. One day you could be working closely with the quant team, the next you are supporting finance or operations, and the next you are deep in infrastructure with the engineering team. You have real ownership over what you build and how you build it.
The firm is actively building an engineering culture where AI plays a genuine role in how the team works. If that kind of environment appeals to you, this is a place you can grow into, not just grow out of.
You will be working hybrid, four days a week in the office, so you are embedded in the team and close to the decisions that matter.
In terms of what you bring, you have deep Python skills and strong experience with SQL and Postgres. You have shipped data pipelines into production using Airflow or something comparable, and you are comfortable working across AWS.
You have spent 4+ years in a dedicated data engineering role and you can own delivery end-to-end, from first conversation with a stakeholder to something live in production.
