Job Specifications
Get stuck in immediately to a database migration using Snowflake.
This company work across various energy and commodities markets across the world. We appreciate that not everyone wants to work within Oil and Gas trading, however, part of the role of the data team is to look at more sustainable options for trading all kinds of commodities products.
You’re going to be getting involved with a number of newly launched data projects, with your initial project being to work on this migration. You’ll face off with the business (Heads of Desk, Traders, Analysts), understanding what they need, discussing solutions with the Data Science team, then building out the best solution possible, whether it be with an off the shelf product, or building it completely from scratch using primarily Python and SQL.
The data team has grown over the past 12-18 months, with data engineering still being built out in London. There’s a strong opportunity to take on leadership responsibilities, so if management is in your sights and ambitions, you’ll be able to achieve that here.
The team are using more advanced technology as time goes on and you’ll be able to suggest potential tools to use. Snowflake is one of the examples of this, as it’s recently been brought into the team on suggestion of one of the team and is now being widely used. Alternatively, if there’s a ready customised tool within AWS that you feel is a better option, then you can use that. There really is plenty of technical freedom here.
In terms of your technical experience you’ll need to have worked in a commercial data engineering role for a few years, this is a mid-level position. Strong Python, Snowflake and SQL experience will be required and any experience of working with tools like Docker/Kubernetes and AWS would be a huge preference. Commodities experience/knowledge is not required but would be a plus.
This is a global commodities firm with a strong history of performance and revenue. Your starting salary will be up to £130,000 plus a performance related bonus. Benefits include medical, dental and life insurance, wellness programs, pension, generous parental leave and various other perks.
