Senior Quantitative Data Engineer

The Role

As the driving force behind Schonfeld’s next-generation data platforms, you will architect, operate, and continually refine underlying platform that empowers research, systematic trading, AI and risk analytics. On top of this robust foundation, you’ll build and run high-throughput pipelines spanning ultra-low-latency market-data streams to cost-efficient end-of-day workflows. Partner closely with quants, data scientists, and fellow engineers to achieve sub-minute SLAs, shape firm-wide architecture, and mentor peers. We believe diverse backgrounds and voices spark better ideas and more resilient systems, so you’ll join an inclusive culture where every perspective counts.

What you’ll do

• Architect and operate the platform – 24x7 reliability, IaC-driven deployments, tight cost controls
• Build and evolve batch and streaming pipelines that ingest billions of market-data events each day
• Architect high-performance, cost-efficient Lakehouse tables
• Expose curated datasets via robust, versioned APIs consumed by quants and AI agents
• Optimize workflows to meet aggressive SLAs, embedding observability and automated data quality checks end-to-end
• Champion Infrastructure-as-Code
