Collaborate with investors and quantitative researchers to understand their workflows and translate requirements into scalable data and tooling solutions.
Contribute to the rationalization of data vendors and the convergence of legacy data stores into a cohesive, central platform capability.
Implement and enhance data and analytics quality controls, monitoring, and documentation to promote trust in both the data and the analytics built on top of it.
Participate in code reviews, design discussions, and standards-setting to ensure high engineering quality and reusability across the platform.
Proactively identify opportunities to improve performance, usability, and reliability of the platform, and drive initiatives from concept through to.
Required Skills & Qualifications Technical skills
Strong hands-on experience with Python for data-intensive applications, including use of common libraries (e.g., pandas, polars, numpy) and building testable, maintainable, production-quality code.
Solid understanding of data modeling concepts, particularly for time-series and reference data (e.g. slowly changing dimensions, point-in-time and bi-temporal data).
Proficiency with SQL and experience working with large datasets in modern data platforms (e.g., Snowflake, cloud data warehouses, data lakes) and open-source formats such as parquet.
Strong software engineering fundamentals: version control (git), code reviews, unit/integration testing, logging, and documentation.
Domain knowledge
Working knowledge of investment data, including:
Security master and symbology (e.g., issuer vs. security identifiers, vendor symbologies).
Fundamental data (e.g., financial statements, estimates), pricing and returns, benchmarks, and basic risk/portfolio concepts.
Familiarity with the practical use of data in investment workflows such as screening, backtesting, portfolio analysis, factor, and performance / attribution concepts.
Experience & Education
3-7 years of professional experience as a quantitative developer, quantitative analyst, or research platform/analytics engineer in asset management, a hedge fund, or a similarly data-driven financial environment.
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, Statistics, or a related quantitative field, or equivalent professional experience.

About Shatterproof
Shatterproof was founded in 2013 to fill the gap for a well‑funded, national, coordinated effort to reverse the course of the addiction health crisis, with the singular goal of ending the devastation addiction is causing our families. We know there are science‑based solutions that can prevent and treat this disease, and we are committed to what research has proven to be effective. We have identified three priority pillars: transforming addiction treatment, ending addiction stigma, and educating and empowering communities.
Transforming Addiction Treatment: Shatterproof is transforming the U.S. healthcare system for the more than 40 million Americans living with a substance use disorder (SUD). Like anyone suffering from a disease, those with this disease deserve access to treatment that is based on science, complemented by a supportive recovery community, both free of shame and stigma. Removing barriers to lifesaving treatment is a core mission focus of Shatterproof.
Ending Addiction Stigma: Shatterproof's National Stigma Initiative replicates the success of other transformational social movements-such as HIV/AIDS activism, cancer awareness, and marriage equality-in catalyzing the change needed to create a more tolerant, more compassionate, and healthier future. We are committed to creating solutions that are adept at changing attitudes and behaviors and ultimately closing SUD treatment gaps and health inequities for historically disadvantaged populations who experience compounded discrimination and bias.
Supporting and Empowering Communities: Shatterproof is committed to educating and empowering our families and communities nationwide by providing supportive and evidence‑based resources related to prevention, treatment and recovery from addiction.
