Senior Data Engineer

Senior Data Engineer

Engelhart was founded in 2013 by BTG Pactual Group as a commodities trading company. Our business model is “asset light” and highly diversified – giving us the ability to adapt effectively and nimbly to changing market conditions. We have assembled successful multidisciplinary teams, leveraging advanced fundamental analysis with deep quantitative and weather research capabilities. Our activities are underpinned by strong risk management practices and by powerful technology and operational excellence. We have exceptional teams with diverse global backgrounds and decades of experience, and are driven by a highly collaborative culture, across products and competencies.

In 2024, Engelhart acquired Trailstone, a global energy trading and technology company. The acquisition provides us with new expertise, analytics and proprietary technology which is being used to provide risk management and optimisation services to help maximise the value of our clients’ renewable power. The acquisition also expanded Engelhart’s capabilities into physical natural gas across North America, a critical fuel to support the energy transition.

Our talented and experienced individuals work together according to its four company values:be bold, be collaborative, be proactive, be your best.

Quantitative Developer, Systematic Trading – London, UKAbout the Role

We are looking for an experienced Python developer to join the new Quantitative Systematic Team here at Engelhart. Based in the London office, we are a small team comprising quant researchers and developers, building a portfolio of data-driven trading strategies and underlying technical infrastructure.

The role requires strong Python and mathematical skills, along with the ability to deliver robust code that will run our strategies. From a programming perspective, the role offers numerous exciting challenges to solve and learn from, including performance optimization when dealing with large volumes of data, building cloud-native applications, and developing versatile reporting and visualization frameworks.

As this is a greenfield development project, the role also provides exposure to all stages of systematic trading; from data ingestion to forecasting, portfolio construction, execution, and reporting.

About You

This person will be an experienced developer, comfortable working directly with stakeholders in a highly commercial environment. An understanding of the underlying mathematics would be beneficial for this individual, though a lack of prior experience in finance would not necessarily be a problem for a successful candidate.

In addition, we are looking for somebody with the followingexperience and skills:

  • Around 2 to 5 years of experience in a similar role.
  • Experience with the Python data ecosystem, specifically pandas.
  • Knowledge of cloud technologies, ideally AWS and Azure.
  • Familiarity with CI solutions.
  • Knowledge of Docker and Kubernetes is a plus
  • Experience in finance is beneficial, particularly in commodities.

What we offer

  • Competitive compensation and participation in Engelhart’s discretionary bonus plan.
  • 25 days of annual holiday entitlement, excluding UK public holidays.
  • Robust benefits package such as Medical, Dental, Vision, Life insurance, pension contribution match, and supplemental benefits partially subsidised by the Company.
  • Eligibility to receive external and internal training in accordance with our Training & Development Policy.

We believe in inclusivity and are therefore dedicated to ensuring all employees – across gender identity, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, life experience, background and more – feel welcome and included in the company. We promote diversity because we believe it is essential to our ability to think holistically.

Where to Advertise Data Science Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising data science jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. Data science spans a broad and often misunderstood spectrum — from statistical modelling and experimental design through to machine learning engineering, product analytics and AI research. The strongest candidates identify firmly with specific subdisciplines and are frustrated by adverts that conflate data scientist with data analyst, business intelligence developer or machine learning engineer. General job boards produce high application volumes for data roles but consistently fail to match specialist data science profiles with the right opportunities. This guide, published by DataScienceJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise data science roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

New Data Science Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and International Companies Leading Analytics and AI Innovation

For professionals exploring opportunities on www.DataScience-Jobs.co.uk , identifying these employers early can provide a competitive advantage in a market with high demand for advanced analytics and machine learning expertise. This article highlights new and high-growth data science employers to watch in 2026, focusing on UK startups, scale-ups, and global firms expanding their data science operations locally. All of the companies included have recently raised investment, won high-profile contracts, or significantly scaled their analytics teams.

How Many Data Science Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Data Science Job?

If you’re trying to break into data science — or progress your career — it can feel like you are drowning in names: Python, R, TensorFlow, PyTorch, SQL, Spark, AWS, Scikit-learn, Jupyter, Tableau, Power BI…the list just keeps going. With every job advert listing a different combination of tools, many applicants fall into a trap: they try to learn everything. The result? Long tool lists that sound impressive — but little depth to back them up. Here’s the straight-talk version most hiring managers won’t explicitly tell you: 👉 You don’t need to know every data science tool to get hired. 👉 You need to know the right ones — deeply — and know how to use them to solve real problems. Tools matter, but only in service of outcomes. So how many data science tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the answer is not “27” — it’s more like 8–12, thoughtfully chosen and well understood. This guide explains what employers really value, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to focus your toolbox so your CV and interviews shine.
