- Lead the design of robust SQL schemas that support both transactional application needs and complex analytical reporting.





- Design and optimize SQL schemas that are built for growth and performance.

- Proactively use and integrate AI agentic tools (e.g., coding assistants, autonomous task runners) to automate repetitive work and accelerate feature delivery.

- Working closely with the cloud infrastructure team in supporting, maintaining and scaling our infrastructure across AWS (or Google Cloud/Azure).

Technical Requirements

- Core Languages: 5–7 years of experience with Python and C++.

- Architecture: Practical experience with system design patterns (Microservices, REST, Event‑driven).

- Database: Strong proficiency in SQL and experience with relational database design.

- Cloud & Containers: Hands‑on experience with AWS and container orchestration (Docker/K8s).

- Efficiency: A demonstrated ability to use AI‑augmented tools to increase personal coding velocity and solve complex problems faster.

- Practical knowledge of the Google work environment (G Suite).

- Experience in the business area of equities and derivatives trading.
