At FactSet, our values are the foundation of everything we do. They express how we act and operate, serve as a compass in our decision-making, and play a big role in how we treat each other, our clients, and our communities. We believe that the best ideas can come from anyone, anywhere, at any time, and that curiosity is the key to anticipating our clients’ needs and exceeding their expectations.
Your Team's Impact
Join FactSet's Data Solutions AI team where our mission is to transform how financial professionals discover and interact with data through cutting-edge AI and machine learning technologies. We're building intelligent systems that enable clients to ask natural language questions about financial data and receive actionable insights powered by our semantic enrichment platform. At the core of our infrastructure is a knowledge graph that connects financial concepts to FactSet's comprehensive structured and unstructured data offerings, powering innovative solutions that push the boundaries of FactSet’s products.
What You'll Do
Scale our unstructured financial document enrichment pipeline that powers FactSet’s knowledge graph to support the ingestion and enrichment of 500,000+ news, transcripts, and filings document chunks per day across dozens of financial domains.
Enhance and scale our AWS-based infrastructure to ensure the efficient, reliable delivery of ML and AI projects, including the integration of agentic solutions.
Work closely with other engineers and product developers to integrate and manage diverse domains of ML and NLP models. Offer expert advice on model selection and deployment strategies.
In collaboration with agentic tooling (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot), manage the entire software development lifecycle, from the initial design and coding to testing and the deployment of applications.
Act as a mentor to team members, promoting a culture of innovation and continuous learning within the team.
Implement robust observability and tracing across data enrichment pipelines to ensure end-to-end transparency to product and engineering stakeholders, enabling proactive monitoring and alerting, and rapid identification of quality or performance issues.
Note: Although we utilize agentic tools extensively at FactSet (Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot), we expect candidates for this role to demonstrate strong software engineering and machine learning fundamentals during the interview process.

Proficiency in Python, API development, and software engineering paradigms.
Excellent communication abilities, capable of engaging both technical and business audiences and leading cross-functional projects.
Knowledge of major database architectures including SQL, NoSQL, and Vector databases.
Desired Skills
Experience with knowledge graphs and architecting LLM-powered solutions.
Experience with enhancing and scaling event-driven architectures.
Familiarity with financial data, applications, and specific industry challenges.
Expertise in NLP libraries such as NLTK, spaCy, or GLiNER and proficiency in unstructured text analysis.
