Primary Location: Hybrid - Greater New York City metro area

Primary Location Salary Range: $160,000 - $200,000

Responsibilities

The client, a large bank, is in the process of centralizing its key reporting and aggregation processes on cloud platforms.

In 2024, the intention is to centralize cashflow aggregation onto a platform based on Databricks technologies (Databricks and Deltalake).

The project involves collecting both actual and forecast cashflows from both real-time and batch data sources, cleaning and enriching the data, and storing the resulting aggregated data in Deltalake for use in reporting.

Qualifications

Technical skills:

Successful candidates will have played an important role in at least one Databricks platform implementation. Experience in data migration, data integration, and delivery of data warehouses is also advantageous.

• Databricks: the candidate should be familiar with ETL/ELT in Databricks, with Medallion architecture and with Deltalake.
• Other relevant technologies include:
  • Streaming technologies such as Kafka
  • Delta Share and Deltalake Connector
  • SQL, Python and PySpark

Domain knowledge:

The successful candidate will have a background in financial products and processes. Relevant areas of domain knowledge include:

• Cashflow forecasting and liquidity management
• Financial products including securities such as swaps, and banking products such as loans
• Reference data including counterparty and business hierarchy data
• Regulatory and risk management reporting needs
• Experience of the challenges of aggregating data in bulk across business units and asset classes

Other capabilities:

This role is likely to have an element of communication and leadership, rather than being purely a technical role within the team.

• The bank is at a relatively early stage in implementing the transition to Databricks.
• The role will involve guiding and understanding aspects of the migration such as cost management and use case prioritization.
• The role will involve communicating with data providers and data consumers to understand the requirements and to source and map the needed data fields.
