Join the Development team supporting our SPOT Trading Desk. Do you like to be part of a team where you can directly see the impact of your work? Do you have the drive and high responsibility necessary for being part of a fast-moving trading environment? Then become a Data Engineer at Northpool! Grasp the opportunity The key to success of a winning trade can be found in the fluid processing of the latest relevant data. As a Data Engineer, you have a key role in this process. The gathering and processing of the data to translate it into usable information for the traders is an essential part along the chain. As a Data Engineer, you will primarily be responsible for expanding and improving our data streaming architecture. In concrete terms, this involves developing webscrapers, real-time transformations on the raw data, back-end APIs, and front-end dashboards for the traders to look at. You will streamline the data flows and build monitoring systems to make sure the trader is provided with excellent trading information to beat the markets. Your challenge? New data sources pop up almost every day. Gathering these sources and creating a framework to be able to convert them into useful information. For our SPOT traders, timing is crucial. You will need to make sure that the data is available as soon as possible. As a Data Engineer, you will first get to learn and understand the flows of data sources and will be educated to understand how to interpret the data and how the data is used by the trader. You will start as part of the SPOT Development team and will get assigned a project to develop new scrapers and/or further process the data in such a way that your colleagues are able to use it.
