Wat ga je doen?

Your work goes well beyond technical delivery. You will translate complex investment and analytical needs into tangible data deliverables, shape reliable data models, monitor critical interfaces, and ensure that high‑quality, timely and trustworthy data is available to all stakeholders. You will also help drive innovative data and analytics use cases across the TPP domain as part of our broader strategic investment in data capabilities.

Technical expertise is essential, but so is your ability to collaborate effectively with business teams, communicate clearly, and help foster a strong data culture. A solid understanding of financial data, from instruments and pricing to market data flows, enables you to ask the right questions and deliver data solutions that truly move the investment function forward.

Key responsibilities

  • Enable the TPP domain data strategy by developing high‑quality, reliable and well‑governed data products that support the full investment chain across all teams.
  • Take a proactive role in designing, implementing and continuously improving data processing workflows for diverse and complex data sources - including market data, fundamental data and ESG data - ensuring they are fit for analysis, investing and reporting purposes.
  • Ensure high data quality through validation, reconciliation, monitoring and automated controls, recognizing that data accuracy directly influences investment insights, risk management and reporting.
  • Take a leading role in sharing your knowledge and support capability development within the domain by mentoring colleagues, strengthening engineering skills across the team, and helping business stakeholders improve their technical understanding and data‑maturity capabilities.
  • Work closely with investment experts and other business stakeholders to understand their objectives, and translate these into clear, effective and actionable technical solutions.
  • Collaborate with data engineers from other teams, the data infrastructure team and data architects, ensuring alignment in design choices, architecture principles and platform evolution.
