Build and maintain backend data and software systems supporting event-driven investment products. Improve the speed and reliability of production models, develop infrastructure and internal tooling, and collaborate across teams. The role requires Python development, microservice architecture, REST APIs, and database experience, with opportunities to contribute to client-facing products and take on increasing ownership.
About Intropic
Intropic builds data and analytics for event-driven investing. Our products help hedge funds, banks and asset managers understand and trade around index rebalances, M&A, equity capital markets activity and shareholder flows. Our engineering team sits at the heart of the business: the models and pipelines we run every day feed directly into the data our clients rely on.
About the Role
Responsibilities
We're looking for a mid-level Backend Data/Software Engineer to join our engineering team and support cross-team operations. You'll work across teams to improve the speed and reliability of our production models, and build out the infrastructure and tooling our internal teams rely on day to day.
This role suits an ambitious engineer who wants more autonomy than a typical mid-level position offers. You'll be working close to the core of how the business runs, with a clear path toward greater ownership, including the chance to help design and build new products for clients as you develop.
