  • Work with engineering and data teams to deliver reliable datasets, data feeds, and integrations that fit customer systems
  • Make explicit decisions about scope, quality, and delivery dates; resolve dependencies and keep important work moving

  • Work closely with engineering, data, and commercial teams while being an integral part of the leadership team
  • Comfortable discussing an institution's data requirements and deciding what the team must deliver this week

  • Understand market data and how financial institutions evaluate, purchase, integrate, and use it
  • Have good knowledge of onchain markets, tokenized equities and RWAs
