    • Strong collaboration abilities - you'll partner closely with the Performance Tech Lead and application developers
    • A love for building systems that "just work"
    • Interest in finance and quantitative applications
    What you will do:
    • Optimize middle-tier OLTP schemas and materialized tables for efficient application data access
    • Refactor heavy bottom-up models and preprocessing pipelines, narrowing inputs to essential subsets
    • Implement Dagster/dbt data agreements, automated tests, and drift detection for reliability
    • Build and maintain data validation layers that catch issues before they reach production
    • Collaborate with the Performance Tech Lead to guarantee smooth data transfer between storage and computation
    • Build monitoring and alerting for data pipeline health and latency
    • Document data lineage and transformation logic for team transparency
    What you bring:
    • Strong proficiency in Python and its data stack (pandas, numpy, polars)
    • Expert-level SQL skills including query optimization, indexing strategies, and execution plan analysis
    • Experience with modern data orchestration tools (Dagster, dbt, or Airflow)
    • Understanding of OLTP vs OLAP patterns and when to use each
    • Experience implementing data contracts, schema validation, and automated testing for data pipelines
    • Experience with data quality frameworks and identifying drift
    • Understanding of materialized views, incremental processing, and caching strategies
    • Experience with cloud data platforms (Azure preferred)
    • Awareness of performance optimization at the data layer
    • Preferred: Experience with financial data, time series data, or quantitative analysis pipelines
    Education Preferred
    Bachelor of Science (B.S.) or equivalent experience
    Experience
    3-6 years development experience with significant focus on data engineering or data-intensive applications
