About this role
We are looking to hire an Automation Engineer to work closely with teams across White Swan Data, including trading, quants, development, accounts and operations. This is an exciting opportunity to learn how they work, identify manual processes that could be automated, and build reliable solutions using the tools best suited to the problem, including AI. In our fast-paced quantitative trading environment, accuracy and reliability matter as much as speed, and your work will directly free up colleagues’ time. Work with stakeholders: Embed yourself with teams across the business, building relationships and asking the right questions to understand their workflows, challenges and pain points, including where processes are not immediately obvious to automate. Identify automation opportunities: Analyse existing processes, challenge inefficient ways of working and prioritise opportunities to reduce manual effort, improve accuracy and increase efficiency. Build automation solutions: Design, develop and implement practical solutions using appropriate programming languages, APIs, workflow tools and AI technologies. Own delivery and reliability: Take solutions from initial idea through testing and rollout, ensuring they are reliable, well-documented and continue to work as business needs evolve. Measure and improve: Evaluate the impact of automation, gather feedback from colleagues and continuously refine solutions to deliver lasting improvements.
