Data Engineer

Talener

Title: Data Engineer

Location: New York, NY – Hybrid 3x per week

Client: Leading US financial markets operator and data services company

Role: A well-established financial markets company is looking for a hands-on Data Engineer to join their IT Infrastructure team. This is a 50/50 role – you'll own and maintain a large-scale on-prem data warehouse (~10TB, ~100 ETL jobs) while simultaneously helping architect and build out a modern cloud-based data lakehouse. This isn't a pure maintenance gig – there's real opportunity to shape the direction of the data platform and leave a mark on the architecture. Lots of hands-on development, new feature builds, and collaboration with data analysts who depend on the pipelines you own.

Must-Have Skills:
  • 5+ years of professional experience
  • Heavy SQL development – tuning, stored procedures, schema/database design
  • ETL pipeline experience – building, optimizing, and maintaining at scale
  • AWS (Athena, S3) – primary cloud platform
  • Relational database experience – Informix, Postgres, or MySQL
  • Scripting – Python, Bash, or Shell
  • Comfortable working in both on-prem and cloud environments
  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science
Pluses:
  • Financial services or fintech background
  • Experience with cloud data lakehouse migrations
  • Familiarity with AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, etc.)
Compensation:
  • Base up to $180k depending on experience
  • ~20% discretionary annual bonus
  • Equity
