Lead Data Engineer
London – Hybrid, 1 to 2 days per week in the office
We are looking for a Lead Data Engineer to lead our Data Ingest team, responsible for scraping the data that fuels our products. You'll play a pivotal role in shaping how we capture, process and scale the data pipelines that underpin our insights.
What you'll be working on:
Line management of the Data Ingest team engineers
Translating the strategic roadmap into actionable small tasks and providing visibility on delivery progress to stakeholders
Doing or overseeing research and technical investigations, representing and prioritising the resulting improvements against other stakeholder priorities
Improving and automating team processes – release of new features, cross-team collaboration and inspiring the culture of innovation and growth in the team
Implementation of new and maintenance of existing scrapers
Migration of scrapers to AWS and from old Jenkins-based orchestration to a new microservice-based system
Improvements to the scraping platform in the areas of data quality, performance and observability
About the team:
You will join a technical team of c. 40 technologists with a key purpose of continuously and reliably collecting large amounts of financial data describing cross-border payments, then processing the data, checking the quality and serving it to our users so that they can make the best business decisions
The Data Ingest team is the oldest team at FXC Intelligence, existing in some form for over six years now. We provide the platform for collecting unstructured data from open third-party websites and mobile apps, and make sure that the data collected corresponds to the company's data quality standards and SLAs. As the business grows and requirements change, so do we – the platform has survived several iterations and is currently in the process of being migrated to its fourth generation. The team also maintains over 100 scrapers for different providers of data, which power most of the company's critical datasets
You should apply if you have:
Advanced skills in Python and SQL
Involvement in web scraping and/or backend development
Experience utilising AI to increase team productivity, efficiency and data quality
A proactive approach, with the ability to set and exemplify high standards
The ability to work in a fast-paced environment and adapt to change quickly
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to communicate clearly and effectively
Proven experience and a desire to manage a team
A desire to understand and engage with the business domain and product
A love for learning and improving your skills
It'd be great (but not essential) if you also have:
Prior experience working for a data product company or being involved with Big Data
Experience with advanced database management and data modelling
Experience building or maintaining third-party or in-house data quality and cataloguing solutions
DBT, Airflow (or other task orchestration tools), Kafka/RabbitMQ
Experience with documentation of system architecture
Experience collaborating with a BI, DA and/or ML team
Tech Stack:
Python, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ, Redis, Puppeteer, Playwright, Selenium, Pandas, Numpy and SKlearn
