These indices underpin trillions of dollars of trades and assets under management, and hundreds of high profile clients rely on them daily to make critical business decisions.

We are seeking a motivated engineer to join our index data validation and orchestration team.

2. Develop high quality, stable, and scalable solutions using a test driven approach.
3. Be creative in solving complex problems while understanding the scope and impact of your work.

6. Collaborate closely with our Product counterparts as well as other Engineering teams.

You'll need to have:
