  • Design and build a rich semantic layer over the aggregated data, creating a business-friendly data model that can power both traditional BI and next-generation AI-driven queries.
  • Solve deep computer science challenges within Spark, choosing the right underlying mechanisms, designing optimal data partitioning strategies, and minimizing network shuffling to ensure extreme performance.
  • Build a self-service platform that empowers quants and risk managers to define new aggregations without writing new code.
  • Pioneer innovative ways of making data available to users by building high-performance APIs for UIs, and providing curated datasets for Python Notebooks that enable deep forensic analysis and calculation replication.
  • Load the final, aggregated risk metrics into high-performance OLAP stores (Apache Pinot, Apache Druid) to serve the analytics and UI layers.
