The Client This is an outstanding opportunity to join one of the largest alternative asset managers in the world in a wide-ranging leadership role. With a flat-structured, 'no-attitude' working environment, this is a great time to join as engineering is undergoing significant investment. The Role They're looking for a highly motivated manager to join Production Support, a 3 rd line team which digs into logs, SQL tables and queries, looks through source code, troubleshoots infrastructure, and pores through performance metrics - as well as building the tools to make all of those things easier. You'll work closely with software engineers to support traders, portfolio managers and clients by building and maintaining complex systems that underpin the firm's platform and central functions.

The Team Machine Learning Technology is a small and agile team that facilitates the use of machine learning tools across the firm, with a particular focus on generative AI. Alongside developing and provisioning the platform, you'll also consult with teams throughout the business assisting them in transforming their concepts into high-impact solutions. As an engineer in the ML Technology team, you'll help to develop a cutting-edge platform, collaborating closely with company-wide teams and individuals to deeply understand their needs and guide them in leveraging the platform. Where required, you will also use both the platform and your expertise to design and implement bespoke solutions to meet their requirements. Positioned at the crossroads of finance and the burgeoning field of AI engineering, the Machine Learning Technology team exists in a rapidly progressing space. This team provides an opportunity to make significant contributions across the business, developing solutions to problems that were very recently considered to be either impossible or extremely difficult to solve. The Technology Core systems are almost all running on Linux and most of the code is in Python, with the full scientific stack: numpy, scipy, pandas, scikit-learn to name a few of the libraries used extensively. For storage, they rely heavily on MongoDB. They use Docker, Kubernetes and Airflow to streamline deployments and leverage OpenFin and React for front-end development. Because of the small team size and the dynamic nature of the business, technology choices are not static and team members can explore new technologies freely. This means you will be able to shape the technology landscape and have a high impact early on. Working Here This fund has a small company, no-attitude feel. It is flat structured, open, transparent and collaborative, and you will have plenty of opportunity to have enormous impact on the firm. They are actively engaged with the broader technology community. They host and sponsor London's PyData & Machine Learning Meetups and open-source some of their technology They regularly talk at leading industry conferences, and tweet about relevant technology and how they're using it. They have a fantastic open-plan office overlooking the River Thames, and continually strive to make the environment a great place in which to work. Regular social events; from photography to climbing, karting, wine tasting and monthly team lunches Annual away days and off-sites for the whole team Canteen with a daily allowance for breakfast and lunch, and an on-site bar for in the evening As well as PCs and Macs, you'll find loads of cool tech including light cubes and 3D printers, guitars, ping-pong and table-football, and a piano. Technology and Business Skills Essential: Substantial quant development engineering experience Excellent team management and communication skills A knowledge of a modern data-science stack Demonstrable programming experience, ideally in Python, Java, (C++ desirable) Experience of the challenges of dealing with large data sets, both structured and unstructured Used a range of open source frameworks and development tools, e.g. NumPy/SciPy/Pandas, Spark, Kafka, Flink Working knowledge of one or more relevant database technologies, e.g. Oracle, Postgres, MongoDB, ArcticDB.
