Job Description:

Job ID: 26918

We are building a brand new team enabling our leading European Investments unit at Nordea Asset Management. The team primarily interacts with quant and analysts from the Investment unit in the Nordics supporting them with data and quantitative solutions as a core function ensuring that investment decisions are based on high quality data and easily made available using the right technologies.

About this opportunity

As part of the team you will be working closely with Quant Developers and Analysts in Copenhagen to develop and maintain our core platform for data flows, mathematical models and AI solutions for our investment boutiques.

The primary role of the new team is within core platform development, maintenance and support, but we work as a single model development value stream across Portugal and Denmark, collaborating on defining both what to do and how to do it. You will be tasked with understanding our current codebase and taking part in future improvements and new developments within it.

This includes:

Develop and support data and model pipelines both for internal use and for investment boutiques.

Ongoing monitoring, support, and incident management of all flows

Taking a proactive role in improving stability and performance of our offerings

Help the value stream take over and modernize existing data and model flows

We are currently running a tech stack consisting of, among other things:

Python as the primary language for development of a core model framework, APIs, CLIs, distributed computing, etc.

Kubernetes

Apache Airflow

Atlassian Dev
Ops tools

Jenkins

We are an ambitious team that take ownership of the entire process from idea generation with business stakeholders to deployment and monitoring of live services.

The role is based in Oeiras.

Who you are

Collaboration. Ownership. Passion. Courage. These are the values that guide us in being at our best – and that we imagine you share with us.

To succeed in this role, we believe that you are excited about learning and applying new technologies, and proactively stay on top of relevant developments within the field. You take pride in delivering solutions that not only solve the problem at hand, but are also scalable and
- term maintainable. We work very collaboratively and strive towards joint ownership of our codebase.

Are you at the same time interested in investing and financial markets then do not miss out on this unique opportunity. While the position is mainly a developer role, we expect you to be curious about the business side of things as well. Most of our development projects require a keen understanding of the problem we are trying to solve.

Your experience and background:

A Master degree in Engineering or equivalent in Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, or a related software engineering background

Significant practical experience with Python as a language for core development

Experience with design and development of data and model pipelines

Previous experience with the CI/CD pipelines, particularly within the Atlassian Dev
Ops suite, and scheduling via Airflow are an advantage, but not a requirement. We expect that you are quick and eager to close any gaps in your knowledge.
