Company mission
To enable world class financial products and experiences.
Role
Who you are
- Fluency in Python and Rust
- Experience with multi-GPU environments
- Recognized open-source contributions
- Participation in competitive programming events (CTFs, Putnam, IOI, IMO, IPHO, Topcoder, Codeforces, etc.)
- Experience with infrastructure-as-code, cloud deployments, Kubernetes, containers
What the job involves
- Push the limits of distributed computing and orchestrating large-scale machine learning pipelines
- Build the team and drive the direction of the company
- Shape our product and culture
- Experience the direct impact of what you build on hundreds of millions of people’s financial lives
- Developing our core system and API in both Python and Rust using technologies such as PostgreSQL, ScyllaDB, Redis and ML using industry standard tools (PyTorch, Nvidia Triton)
- Working with highly distributed systems that move and process large quantities of data. Reviewing and changing the architecture of these systems to improve metrics such as throughput and latency
- Understanding customer problems and designing vertical solutions on top of our core systems
- Profiling and improving our stack by operations such as - evaluating database queries, profiling code and re-writing parts of it, or moving python code to rust
Application process
- Send us problems you have solved before and how. Please include as much detail as possible: code, algorithms, derivations, proofs, etc. We will then do a video call to kick things off and go through it (45 mins)
- We will give you a take-home project related to whatever we are currently working on (3-4 hours). Alternatively, if you have a relevant project that you worked on previously that demonstrates your skills as an engineer, you are welcome to use that instead
- We will then do a deep-dive through the project over a call and discuss the implementation, improvements and bottlenecks
Our take
The financial industry has traditionally viewed data as an afterthought. The landscape is starting to change, forcibly, through regulatory innovation like the UK’s Open Banking protocols and commercial innovation from companies like Plaid. Despite these efforts, accessing line-item transaction data is still mired in complexity limiting functionality for financial institutions of all sizes.
Ntropy is changing all this with its attempts to build a single source of truth for consumer financial data. Instead of relying on an only partially intelligible alpha-numeric string, the platform parses that and returns not only the name of the merchant, but also logo, website URL, Yelp reviews and custom categories, unlocking powerful fintech use-cases without world-class data engineers required.
The company is now looking to expand its engineering and commercial team, support market growth and future product development.
The challenge for Ntropy is to build enough momentum to create a community of fintechs relying on its technology. It's already streaks ahead of other efforts in the space and it's easy to predict this community only becoming more vibrant as Ntropy releases new features as part of its enrichment API.
