About Clearmatics
Clearmatics is a protocol engineering company. We are building a new financial market architecture that is more open, fair, and resilient than the legacy systems that are in use today. We develop protocols and software that create new markets for risk and more efficient infrastructure for trading, backed by a robust and scalable blockchain network, and secured with modern cryptographic techniques and economic mechanism design.
Clearmatics is based in London but operates on a ‘remote first’ model. We welcome candidates from all over the world. We have close ties to the Open Source and Ethereum communities, with Vitalik Buterin as an adviser.
The Research group at Clearmatics is dedicated to developing solutions to the hard problems needed to advance our mission. We are academics and protocol engineers collaborating with teams inside and outside the company to translate theoretical results into running software implementations. Our work spans cryptography, game-theory, (computer) networking, identity systems and secure software implementation research, with a focus on their domain applications in financial markets.
We’re looking to hire a Data engineer to expand our Research team.
Job description
A data engineer is a key team player that prepares data for analytical or operational uses. To do so, data engineers architect, implement, test and maintain scalable data pipelines allowing to bring together information from different source systems. By integrating, consolidating, cleaning and structuring data, they aim to make data easily accessible to other team members carrying out analytical work.
The ideal candidate must be proficient in software engineering and have rock solid computer science foundations. The data engineer will be central to the various business functions in Clearmatics. By closely collaborating with colleagues across functions, the successful engineer will be able to assist by providing extensions to the data pipeline and help designing data models, effectively improving the data-driven decision-making of the firm.
