Full Job Posting
Who we are
- We create outsized returns through hands on delivery of designed solutions. We bring together strategy, product, design, engineering and data to solve the hardest problems in financial technology.
- We are leading the transformation with one of the UK’s largest financial services firms; a global trading platform with ambitions far beyond its current business.
What this is
- This is not a reporting or support role. You will join the foundational squad and own the establishment of the data foundations for the future of the company.
- You are the direct analytical partner to the engineering squads building these core services. Your mandate is to embed within the SDLC and ensure that every microservice, API, and frontend component is rigorously instrumented, monitored, and measured.
What you own
- Identity & Session Stitching: You own the logic that tracks user behavior across microservices, APIs, and third party tools.
- Observability & User Monitoring: You manage the intersection of system performance and user friction using tools like AWS RUM, Datadog, New Relic, Amplitude, etc.
- Auth & Onboarding Funnel Analysis: You monitor the critical pathways and identify native mobile/web callback configuration errors.
What you drive in partnership
- QA & Sprint Ticket Auditing: You live alongside the developers, audit sprint tickets to ensure behavioral telemetry and event tagging requirements are built into the definition of done.
- API Event Ingestion & Streaming: You partner with infrastructure to manage the ingestion of high volume event streams (utilizing AWS Kinesis, Kafka, etc.).
- Feature Success Metrics: You define what 'success' looks like in production and set up A/B testing infrastructure to measure impact.
Requirements
- 5+ years in analytics engineering, devops, or data engineering, working directly alongside software engineering squads.
- Deep expertise in identity stitching and session management, particularly in complex Auth0/migration environments.
- Hands on experience with observability and APM tools (Datadog, New Relic) combined with behavioral analytics (Amplitude, Mixpanel).
- Working knowledge of event streaming pipelines (AWS Kinesis, Kafka) and how backend events translate to product analytics.
- A track record of embedding into agile/SDLC workflows (Jira, Trello, Linear) and enforcing data QA standards.
- Strong SQL/Python skills for complex data transformation and workflow automation.
Benefits
- Competitive salary commensurate with experience
- Market standard EOSB and performance bonuses
- Comprehensive health insurance
- Professional development and conference budgets
- Team building events, career mentorship, and strong company culture
- Remote work flexibility
