Worker Type:

PermanentLead the design and delivery of LME market data platforms that consolidate multiple real-time and historical market data sources into scalable enterprise data assets for external and internal consumption. This role focuses on enterprise data management and big data engineering—building robust data lake/warehouse foundations, orchestrated ETL/ELT pipelines, and performant analytics access to support market data commercialisation and business intelligence.

Job Duties:

Key Responsibilities

Market Data & Data Product Enablement

  • Partner with product/business stakeholders to define market data product objectives and translate them into data platform deliverables.
  • Consolidate, normalise, and curate market data sets (including derivatives and order book datasets) as governed, reusable data assets.
  • Define data contracts, metadata, lineage, and quality rules so downstream users can reliably consume market data products.

Enterprise Data Management & Architecture

  • Define and evolve enterprise data management architecture across data lake and data warehouse solutions (on-prem and/or cloud).
  • Design and operate data lake/warehouse layers using technologies such as ADLS, Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Synapse SQL, Snowflake, Amazon Redshift, or Google BigQuery.
  • Set standards for data modelling, governance, security controls, retention, and lifecycle management aligned with organisational policies.

Big Data Engineering & Pipeline Delivery

  • Design, build, and maintain scalable ETL/ELT pipelines for analytics and reporting using code-driven patterns and distributed compute engines.
  • Implement and operate workflow orchestration frameworks such as Apache Airflow, Prefect ("Perfect"), or Dagster, including scheduling, dependency management, and observability.
  • Engineer processing solutions using big data stacks such as Hadoop, Spark, Kafka, and Flink ("Flint"), ensuring throughput, reliability, and cost efficiency.
  • Leverage Spark and/or Databricks (built on Spark) to deliver large-scale transformations and performance-tuned workloads.

Data Stores, Query Performance & Reliability

  • Design data storage and access patterns across data warehouses and databases, including NoSQL stores (e.g., HBase) and analytical engines (e.g., ClickHouse, Snowflake).
  • Drive query and pipeline performance tuning (partitioning, caching, file formats, indexing/cluster keys) and improve SLAs/SLOs for critical datasets.
  • Lead incident analysis and root-cause investigations for data-related issues; implement permanent fixes and continuous reliability improvements.

Leadership & Delivery

  • Operate effectively in a small, specialised team—balancing hands-on contribution with technical leadership, coaching, and setting engineering standards.
  • Promote SDLC best practices, CI/CD, automated testing, monitoring, and documentation to improve delivery quality and repeatability.
  • Coordinate with global engineering and infrastructure teams to deliver roadmap outcomes and manage dependencies.

Requirements

Education & Experience

  • Degree in Computer Science, IT, Data Engineering, or related disciplines (or equivalent practical experience).
  • Typically 12+ years of experience delivering enterprise data management and big data platforms; experience in financial services, exchanges, or regulated environments is advantageous.
  • Proven experience leading delivery, making architecture decisions, and managing stakeholders across cross-functional teams.

Technical Skills (Key Words / Must-have)

  • Enterprise data management; big data projects; data lake and data warehouse design/operations (e.g., ADLS, S3, GCS, Synapse SQL, Snowflake, Redshift, BigQuery).
  • Big data tech stacks: Hadoop / Spark / Kafka / Flink.
  • ETL orchestration: Airflow / Prefect / Dagster.
  • Big data computing engines (code-driven ETL): Spark and/or Databricks.
  • Database technologies: NoSQL / HBase / ClickHouse / Snowflake; strong SQL fundamentals and performance tuning.

Programming Languages

  • Proficiency in at least one language commonly used for data engineering (e.g., Python, Scala, or Java).
  • Java experience is beneficial but not mandatory; selection will be based on overall big data and enterprise data platform expertise.

Core Competencies

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills; outcome-driven and able to prioritise under changing needs.
  • Clear communication and stakeholder management across technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Accountable, proactive, and comfortable operating in a lean team environment.
