Senior Software Engineer – Market Data
Team: Beacon Risk & Pricing Platform Level: Senior Location: Mumbai, Noida
About Beacon Platform by CWAN
Beacon is a cloud-native, cross-asset risk analytics and quantitative development platform used by top-tier asset managers and banks. It provides a transparent, extensible environment for building, deploying, and scaling valuation models, pricing libraries, and risk analytics across asset classes — including derivatives, structured products and fixed income — combining pre-built financial applications with a flexible developer infrastructure that enables quants and model developers to write custom pricing and valuation logic, run scenario analysis, and integrate models directly into front-office and risk workflows, all without the constraints of legacy systems.
We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join the Market Data Team supporting the Beacon Risk & Pricing Platform — the industry's leading real-time risk analytics and pricing solution trusted by the world's largest asset managers and insurers. You will design, build, and operate the market data pipelines that power Beacon's pricing and risk engines. Working closely with quant researchers, risk modellers, and platform engineers across our nimble, globally distributed team, you will ensure market data is sourced, ingested, and stored with accuracy, completeness, and timeliness.
This is a high-ownership role where you will leverage cutting-edge, Python-based cloud-native technologies to make architectural decisions that directly shape how Clearwater consumes, normalizes, and stores market data at scale, with real consequences for the pricing models and portfolios we serve.
Design and build scalable Python-based ETL/ELT pipelines ingesting multi-asset market data (equities, fixed income, derivatives, FX, commodities) from multiple market data vendors
Implement data quality frameworks — completeness checks, anomaly detection, stale-data alerting, and automated reconciliation against authoritative vendor sources.
