About the role

  • Your job is to turn that energy into trusted, shared, and governed products rather than fragmented private workarounds.

Responsibilities

  • Own the data-product lifecycle: turn recurring needs into governed shared products with clear ownership, SLAs, and a catalog that makes the canonical layer discoverable.
  • Drive adoption, measured by the number of teams using the shared layer instead of querying raw vendor tables.
  • Partner on the market data and internal reporting build and the Bloomberg / FactSet data consolidation already underway
  • make the canonical layer the obvious, safe starting point for AI-assisted building across the firm.
  • Leadership & Team-building
  • Build and lead a small, senior data team

Requirements

  • 8+ years in data, with a genuine blend of hands-on data engineering and data-product ownership - you have both shipped pipelines and models and owned definitions and roadmaps.
  • experience standing up data governance in a regulated environment.
  • You are expected to be in the codebase, not only the roadmap.
  • Deep buy-side / asset-management data domain: security and fund master, holdings, transactions, corporate actions, benchmarks and index constituents, identifiers, and NAV - plus the vendor feeds behind them (Bloomberg, FactSet, fund-accountant data).
  • A track record of building and leading a small data team - or clear, evidenced readiness to step into a founding-lead role.
  • Modern-stack depth: data catalog (e.g., OpenMetadata, Atlan), orchestration (Airflow / MWAA), managed ingestion, BI (Sigma), Snowflake Cortex and semantic views.
  • Hands-on with AI-assisted engineering (e.g., Claude Code, Codex, Kiro) and with building self-serve, semantic, or agent layers over governed data.
  • AWS and Terraform / infrastructure-as-code

Nice to have

  • Expert SQL and Python
  • production experience with Snowflake and dbt (or close equivalents).
  • Demonstrated ownership of a canonical data model or data standards across multiple consuming teams.
  • Strong written and verbal communication
  • able to set definitions and defend prioritization with executives and compliance.
  • ETF / 1940-Act fund experience
  • familiarity with SEC recordkeeping (Rule 204-2), Regulation S-P, 15(c) board reporting, and the Tailored Shareholder Reports regime.
