What the posting says

<div class="content-intro"><h2>About Us</h2> 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: Performance, Agility, Collaboration, Entrepreneurship.</div><h3>About the Role</h3> As a member of the Data team, you will help build the services, infrastructure, and data platforms that power our business. Our team is responsible for ingesting, processing, storing, and distributing large volumes of data reliably and efficiently, enabling teams across the business to make data-driven decisions and build innovative products.   This role sits at the intersection of backend software engineering and data engineering, with an emphasis on data engineering. You will build and maintain data pipelines, develop backend services for data ingestion and access, and contribute to the data infrastructure that enables reliable, cost-effective, and high-performance data processing.  You'll work closely with software engineers, DevOps engineers, product managers, data consumers, and more experienced colleagues, who will provide guidance, code reviews, and support as you grow. While the role involves technical collaboration across the organization, it is primarily focused on engineering rather than stakeholder management.  We are a trading company, so business requirements change quickly, and priorities can shift. We are looking for someone who enjoys solving technical problems, takes ownership of their work, is eager to learn, and makes pragmatic engineering decisions in a dynamic environment.
