You should be comfortable investigating complex data support issues in a fast-paced environment About the Role This role is built around production support: Keeping EOD valuation data and reference data used for PnL production running correctly, and being the person who catches, diagnoses, and fixes data problems before they flow to downstream applications.

Respond to global requests via Slack and email to create, update, and troubleshoot financial instrument reference data. Investigate and explain why and how data appears the way it does — tracing issues back through source systems, feeds, and business logic.

Communication: Comfortable fielding requests from a global, technical user base across Slack and email, and explaining data behavior clearly to non-technical and technical audiences alike.
