They express how we act and operate, serve as a compass in our decision-making, and play a big rolein how we treat each other, our clients, and our communities. We believe that the best ideas can come from anyone, anywhere, at any time, and that curiosity is the key to anticipatingour clients’ needs and exceeding their expectations.\nWhat You'll Do\nAnchor the technical direction for two strategic PRD platforms (UCF + FDF) that directly impact how clients consume FactSet data.\nBuild a high-performing team in India from the ground up - define the bar, the practices, and the culture.\nHigh visibility with senior engineering and product leadership across Commercial & Market Distribution Engineering.\nSolve real problems at scale: stability, cost efficiency, custom feature integration, and forward-looking system design.\nInfluence both architecture and hiring strategy as we scale the team.\nClear growth path to manage a larger team as the India hub expands - this role is the foundation for a future engineering manager or senior technical leadership track.\nOwn and evolve the architecture of UCF and FDF, with a focus on scalability, stability, and cost-effective delivery.\nDesign integration patterns that allow custom client features to be delivered at scale without proliferating one-off code paths.\nPartner with engineering leaders in London and the US to align on shared platform direction and ownership boundaries.\nDrive technical decisions around cloud delivery (Snowflake, S3, columnar formats), API design, and data pipeline modernization.\nContribute hands-on to critical components - this is a player-coach role, not pure management.\nParticipate in hiring: define rubrics, run interview loops, calibrate bar across SE3 and SE2 hires.\nRepresent the India team in cross-org architectural forums and steering committees.\nWhat We're Looking For\nBachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or Engineering or related field, or equivalent education. \nPlease note that this is an individual contributor (non-management) role.\n8+ years of software engineering experience, including time in a technical lead or senior IC role.\nDeep system design and architectural judgment.
