Senior Python Engineer (Remote)

Syberry is the technology partner for a US-based capital management company, and we are establishing an engineering center in Europe for them.

The team is building the technology platform to run the company. This is a greenfield development project utilizing Python, Kotlin, React, and AWS as the primary tech stack.

We are seeking a Senior Python Engineer to develop a toolset for portfolio managers that will enable the analysis of financial data and facilitate informed decision-making based on this analysis.

Why join us?

• Learn from top Wallstreet experts: you will work in one team with quants and portfolio managers who have 15+ years of experience in the field.
• Greenfield development : participate in designing and building an entire tech platform for running the company from scratch. Our oldest code is just 1.5 years old.

• Cutting-edge practices : we embrace XP principles like TDD, CI / CD, pair programming, and trunk-based development to ship value daily
• Real challenges: everything you work on gets tested by real users immediately. No boring tasks with unknown value
• Zero bureaucracy: we're a startup so enjoy minimal bureaucracy with 90% of decisions made within 2 business days
• Small, skilled teams: we're a crew of 30 experienced engineers, working in small teams of up to 5 so don't expect communication overload
• True remote: No Return To Office. Work from wherever you want.

About you:

• Strong engineering experience (we mean it) : we believe at least 5 years of software engineering is a good predictor (however, you can challenge this belief)
• Experience using SQL and RDBMS; know how to write requests for relational databases
• Experience designing and writing API by best practices
• Experience working with Docker; can write custom docker file
• Experience writing automated tests
• Experience working with AWS or any other cloud ; can use key services for computation, networking, and storage
• Good mathematical knowledge
• Fluent English: for daily communication with native speakers from the US
• Availability until 7 PM CET at least 3 days a week : our product team and end users operate in the Eastern Time Zone, so we need an overlap for effective collaboration.

Still, we expect 8 hours of work daily so you could start later or have breaks.

Will be a plus:

• Finance knowledge: no need for deep conceptual understanding, but general knowledge about investment management is a big advantage, specifically equities, back-testing, and financial simulations
• Statistics knowledge is a great advantage
• Experience working with end users / clients directly, figuring out their needs, and delivering end-to-end solutions for them.
• You have experience in engineering data pipelines
• You have worked with Flask / Fast API or any other web framework,
• You have worked with Kotlin or another backend programming language.

What a Python Developer will do?

• Create high-quality code according to Syberry's standards
• Engineer a solution to the problem of an end user : delivering API services / working with datasets and data pipelines / delivering integrations with external systems (depending on the team)
• Communicate with the client and the team
