  • Establish monitoring and alerting frameworks for data integrity and completeness

• Cost Management & Optimization
  • Manage and optimize the global market data budget across crypto and traditional vendors
  • Identify cost-saving opportunities through vendor consolidation, direct exchange connectivity, and internal data solutions
  • Implement usage tracking and chargeback models where appropriate

• Infrastructure & Engineering Partnership
  • Partner with engineering teams to build and maintain high-performance data pipelines, feed handlers, and distribution systems
  • Support hybrid environments (on-prem + cloud) and ensure resilience, redundancy, and scalability
  • Enable data access for research, backtesting, and production trading systems

• Regulatory & Compliance Oversight
  • Ensure compliance with exchange licensing, redistribution rules, and evolving crypto regulatory frameworks
  • Implement entitlement controls, audit trails, and governance policies across all data usage

• Stakeholder Collaboration
  • Work closely with trading, quant research, risk, and portfolio management teams to deliver data solutions
  • Support onboarding of new exchanges, instruments (perpetuals, options), and strategies
  • Act as the firm’s subject matter expert on both crypto and cross-asset market data

• Leadership & Team Development
  • Build and lead a high-performing, multidisciplinary team (engineers, analysts and vendor managers)
  • Establish best practices for data onboarding, validation, and lifecycle management
  • Foster a culture of innovation, automation, and operational excellence

• Embrace and champion the thoughtful adoption of AI to improve team performance and business outcomes.
• Leverage AI tools (e.g., generative AI, automation platforms, data copilots) to improve productivity, decision-making, and output quality in your day-to-day work.

What We’re Looking For:

• 10+ years of experience in market data management within a trading firm, hedge fund, or financial institution
• Deep knowledge of market data vendors, exchanges, and licensing models
• Strong understanding of trading workflows, asset classes (equities, futures, options, FX, fixed income), and data types (real-time, reference, historical)
• Proven experience negotiating vendor contracts and managing large budgets
• Experience with low-latency data systems, market data feeds, APIs, and streaming technologies
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with attention to detail
