• Drive end-to-end data integration with engineering: feed onboarding, normalization, symbology and reference data, corporate actions, and distribution to trading and client-facing surfaces.

• Build governance across the data lifecycle: entitlements management, data-quality monitoring, lineage, and compliance with exchange usage policies and audit requirements.

• Partner with product, legal, and compliance on data licensing and redistribution terms as the TradFi roadmap expands into new products, markets, and regions.

• Maintain a live view of the market data landscape — new sources, vendors, partnership models, and pricing — to keep the stack best-in-class and cost-efficient.

• Hands-on experience sourcing and integrating market data across one or more TradFi asset classes (equities, derivatives, commodities, fixed income, FX, indices) and regions.

• Solid understanding of market data technology and reference data: feed protocols, normalization, symbology standards, corporate actions, and time-series distribution.

• Strong commercial and negotiation skills; experience owning vendor relationships and a data budget.

• Excellent stakeholder management across product, engineering, legal, and finance; able to move fluently between technical and commercial conversations.

• Comfortable building from zero to one in a fast-paced, high-velocity environment.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience standing up a market data function at a brokerage launching new asset classes or entering new markets.
