What the job involves

• At Intropic you’ll join a fast-moving fintech startup where engineers own hard, open-ended problems across research, data and product — we don’t just pick up JIRA tickets
• A typical week will mix Python and SQL development, deploying infrastructure changes, building new features for financial-data products, strategic planning with team leads, and attending client meetings to explain work and gather feedback
• Collaborate closely with product managers, research analysts and other engineers to define project scope, translate research into product requirements, and deliver concrete technical solutions
• Maintain, extend and improve Intropic’s suite of financial-data products, from backend data services to client-facing features
• Design, implement and ship clean, well-tested, production-ready Python code and reusable Python libraries used across the stack
• Build and maintain data processing pipelines that ingest, transform and validate large and heterogeneous financial datasets
• Build production REST APIs and data services, and use SQL to analyse large relational datasets
• Deploy production-quality code to cloud infrastructure (cloud providers, CI/CD pipelines) and own the end-to-end release process
• Work with analysts to operationalise quantitative research: production-wise models, automate experiments, and ensure reproducible results

The application process

• This is a full-time role, expected to start in the first half of 2026
