ABOUT CFMFounded in 1991, we are a global quantitative and systematic asset management firm applying a scientific approach to finance to develop alternative investment strategies that create value for our clients.We value innovation, dedication, collaboration, and the ability to make an impact. Together, we create a stimulating environment for talented and passionate experts in research, technology, and business to explore new ideas and challenge existing assumptions.Delivering Impact with DataAt CFM, innovation and the quest for discovery are at the heart of what we do. Our Data Team plays a pivotal role in transforming diverse data sources into trusted, well-governed data assets that enable engineering and research at scale. We foster an environment where curiosity thrives—an ideal workspace for engineers who enjoy building robust platforms, raising quality bars, and enabling teams through high-leverage tooling.Why You'll Love Working Here:Craftsmanship-first culture: you will help turn best practices into shared standards across teams.High leverage & real impact: your work will measurably improve time-to-market, reliability, and developer experience.Influence through delivery: you will operate as a hands-on principal engineer, partnering with data and IT teams to deliver product-oriented platform capabilities.YOUR ROLEAs a key player in the Data Platform Team, reporting to the Head of Data Platform, you will build and evolve high-leverage platform capabilities that power data engineering across the firm. Your mission is to accelerate delivery and strengthen governance by combining software craftsmanship, developer productivity tooling, and the pragmatic adoption of GenAI for developers. You’ll work closely with data and IT teams to ship reliable, well-engineered solutions that scale in a hybrid (on‑prem + cloud) environment.Key ResponsibilitiesAccelerate developer productivity with GenAI: drive adoption of GenAI coding tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot), deliver end-to-end high-value use cases, and continuously improve based on impact metrics (time-to-market, DevX, incidents).Build governance-enabling platform tooling: develop internal tools and shared assets that make data easier to discover, trust, and use (metadata, quality signals, operational visibility) while keeping workflows smooth for engineers.Raise SDLC & release excellence: strengthen CI/CD and release management practices so teams ship changes safely, repeatably, and with production-grade quality.Lead by example in software craftsmanship: model clean code and pragmatic architecture, promote shared standards (testing, reviews, linting, branching, conventions), and help teams deliver consistently high-quality software.Mentor and influence across teams: coach engineers through reviews, pairing, and knowledge sharing, and collaborate with data and IT stakeholders to align priorities and communicate progress (including roadmap and incident-related discussions).YOUR SKILLSEducational Background: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in computer science, software engineering, or related fields.Experience: 10+ years in engineering, including 5+ years building data pipelines, data platforms, or engineering enablement tooling.GenAI track record: 2+ years applying GenAI for developers with demonstrated rollout, enablement, or workflow integration—and measurable impact.Strong Python engineering skills and a proven ability to ship and operate production-quality systems.Cloud & DevOps fluency: hands-on experience delivering on Cloud platforms with CI/CD and Infrastructure-as-Code.Tech lead qualities without hierarchical authority: you influence through clarity, credibility, coaching, and collaboration across teams.Outcome-driven & product-minded: you care about developer experience, reliability, and measurable improvements.Capacity to work in a fast-paced, high-stakes environment, with a commitment to professional development, continuous learning and innovation.Bonus Points:Experience in platform engineering / developer productivity teams (paved roads, templates, golden paths).Experience defining and tracking engineering effectiveness and reliability metrics.Familiarity with modern data processing patterns and frameworks.EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES STATEMENT We are continuously striving to be an equal opportunity employer and we prohibit any discrimination based on sex, disability, origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, race, or religion. We believe that our diversity, breadth of experience, and multiple points of view are among the leading factors in our success.CFM is a signatory of the Women Empowerment Principles.FOLLOW US Follow us on Twitter or LinkedIn or visit our website to find out more about CFM.
