Software Engineer – Data Products, Hedge Fund

Direct access to the top of the firm, sensitive data, and the freedom to shape how a leading hedge fund runs. You're joining one of the most data and technology driven hedge funds in the industry, and this is not a typical software engineering role. You're not building transaction systems. You're building data products to generate insights, spotting inefficiencies, and genuinely improving how the business operates at every level. What makes this different is the access you'll have... Your background can be in or outside of finance. You'll be working directly with the top ten people across the firm on a regular basis - That kind of exposure is rare in any business, let alone in a lean, high-performing hedge fund where the engineering team is trusted with some of the most sensitive data in the organisation. You'll have real freedom here too. If you spot a better tool or a smarter way of doing something, you can propose it. Your ideas will be heard, and your manager is the kind of person who will back you and help you grow. Strong Python experience is a must. The stack also includes modern orchestration and cloud tooling — but they're deliberately agnostic. What matters is that you've built and owned data systems at meaningful scale, that you understand the engineering decisions that make pipelines reliable and platforms maintainable, and that you can articulate the complexity of what you've built. You'll be expected to hold your own in conversations with senior stakeholders, translate complex technical thinking into clear ideas, and bring genuine enthusiasm to the work you do every day. You're someone who operates at breadth from any industry, so it's a great chance to get into this lucrative industry have worked close to the business, and kept learning outside of work hours. If you're experience is with data infrastructure, backend systems, and hard problems, this could be a great next step. The salary is up to £150,000 with a 100% bonus on top.
