Data Engineer

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain party reference data services and pipelines supporting clients, counterparties, issuers, and legal entities.
• Build and enhance cloud-native data solutions using AWS services such as Glue, Lambda, EventBridge, S3, RDS (Aurora/Postgres), and MSK/Kinesis.
• Contribute to modernization efforts by migrating legacy party data systems from on-premise platforms to scalable, cloud-based architectures.
• Integrate and manage third-party data providers (e.g., S&P Global Markit, Dun & Bradstreet, KYC/AML vendors) to ensure accurate ingestion, enrichment, and synchronization of party data.
• Implement data mastering capabilities including deduplication, survivorship rules, identity resolution, and golden record creation.
• Develop and maintain APIs and data services to deliver party data to downstream systems such as CRM, trading, compliance, and reporting platforms.
• Ensure data quality, reliability, and lineage through validation frameworks, monitoring, and metadata management.
• Build resilient, observable systems with appropriate logging, alerting, and fault-tolerant design patterns.
• Collaborate with architecture, security, and governance teams to ensure compliance with data privacy, regulatory, and cybersecurity standards.
• Participate actively in Agile delivery processes including backlog refinement, sprint planning, code reviews, and production support.
• Mentor junior developers and contribute to coding standards, design reviews, and engineering best practices.
