Role
Who you are
- A well-rounded engineer. You have 3+ years of professional experience writing production-ready code in a language such as Python, Scala, Java or R. You are able to write well thought-out code while accounting for resource and performance constraints
- Passionate about working with data. You should have 2+ years of professional experience working directly with data pipelines with exposure to datasets related to loans an added plus. Your typical day-to-day involves tasks such as wrangling messy raw data into a usable state, expressing complex business logic as code, and configuring new and debugging existing pipelines
- Excited about big data tools. You work frequently with processing frameworks and databases designed to handle large datasets and have spent time optimizing how you store and compute data within them
- Knowledgeable about relational data concepts. You are able to understand and explain the relationship between various tables and how and why the needs of stakeholders have been captured in a particular data model. You are very comfortable performing ad-hoc data exploration using SQL
- Interested and experienced in both engineering and finance. You're looking to grow your skills in both disciplines and are excited about the synergies between finance and technology. You’re capable of understanding how investors evaluate loan portfolios and the complexities of amortization, prepay, and default
- A first-rate collaborator and communicator. You’re comfortable working alongside analysts and subject matter experts and translating their requirements into code. You thrive on interacting with clients to best understand and satisfy their needs
What the job involves
- Be at the heart of dv01. You will operate as the bridge between the engineering and finance teams, contributing to a variety of integral processes that drive dv01 on a daily basis. Every new dataset that gets integrated within dv01 will have your fingerprints all over it
- Be an owner of dv01's most valuable asset. You'll own the business logic in our data pipeline, encapsulating all the knowledge we've accumulated across hundreds of datasets. The output from the pipeline powers all of dv01's customer offerings and is critical to the success of our business
- Be customer-facing. You will have direct exposure to high-level contacts at hedge funds, banks, and asset originators, providing valuable insights to help them answer complex questions
- Work with state-of-the-art technology. You'll work with popular, modern, and exciting open source technologies like Apache Spark, Airflow and DBT. Everything we do is cloud-native on Google Cloud Platform, utilizing tools including BigQuery and Dataproc. The skills you develop here will serve you well beyond dv01
Our take
Analyzing and utilizing huge data sets is a laborious process for investors and the consumer lending industry. Sifting through databases with tens of thousands of cells is already tedious, and the analysis of international data through archaic technology presents further complications.
dv01 believes these challenges have the potential to result in a financial endemic. It aims to solve it through end-to-end data management, reporting, and analytic solutions designed bespoke for mortgage and consumer lending markets.
Whilst there are competitors offering similar, individual services in this space, dv01 stands out by providing an end-to-end platform. This has been successful in attracting over 400 companies including Redwood Trust, Lending Club, and Western Asset.
