Description
Job Description
Who We Are: Market Data Engineering
Market Data Engineering is part of the firm’s Data Engineering group handling global access to financial market data sourced both internally and externally from the firm. The team is currently undertaking a project to revolutionize data ingestion, curation and distribution and is looking for talented engineers to ensure delivery success!
Your Impact
This is a rare opportunity to work on the internals of a time-series database engine for real-time data. With capture rates of over 1Tb per day, and data stores containing over 1Pb, this requires highly efficient, scalable software. We are looking for a developer with strong technical skills, who would like innovate using the latest ideas in distributed computing to drive the platform forwards.
The database is used by trading desks and other users for the recording and analysis of market data. We work closely with these users to meet their needs in terms of timely data access and processing. We are developer-maintainers and hence develop all the tools to deploy and maintain the infrastructure ourselves.
We are a key part of GS’s financial cloud strategy. We are actively developing this database in AWS for use by both internal and external clients. See https://developer.gs.com/discover/data .
How You Will Fulfil Your Potential
Skills and Experience We’re Looking For
At Goldman Sachs, we commit our people, capital and ideas to help our clients, shareholders and the communities we serve to grow. Founded in 1869, we are a leading global investment banking, securities and investment management firm. Headquartered in New York, we maintain offices around the world.
We believe who you are makes you better at what you do. We're committed to fostering and advancing diversity and inclusion in our own workplace and beyond by ensuring every individual within our firm has a number of opportunities to grow professionally and personally, from our training and development opportunities and firmwide networks to benefits, wellness and personal finance offerings and mindfulness programs. Learn more about our culture, benefits, and people at GS.com/careers.
