Jobbeschreibung

Quant IP is the leading patent data and analytics provider for financial markets. We serve global financial institutions with data and software solutions to enhance investment decisions.

For our small, growing team, we are looking for an experienced developer in Munich. We’re seeking a highly skilled tech polyglot — comfortable wearing multiple hats across data engineering, research, and software architecture. You will own the end-to-end data lifecycle: from ingesting and transforming complex patent and product data, to developing and optimizing algorithms, to managing workflows and ensuring data quality at scale.

This role is perfect for someone who thrives in startup environments, loves diving into unfamiliar tech stacks, and enjoys building scalable, automated systems from the ground up.

Tasks

• Develop, optimize, and maintain complex ETL pipelines to process large volumes of patent and product data
• Design and implement robust data workflows and orchestration (e.g., Airflow or custom solutions)
• Build scalable data models and algorithmic solutions tailored to QIP’s proprietary data
• Conduct deep research and exploratory analysis to generate actionable insights
• Collaborate cross-functionally with sales, product, engineering, and research teams to integrate data solutions into production
• Ensure code quality, documentation, and reproducibility across data projects
• Continuously explore new tools, frameworks, and methods to improve system reliability and performance

Requirements

• Tech Polyglot Mindset: Proficiency across data science, engineering, and software
• Strong experience with Python and SQL, including data manipulation and querying
• Deep understanding of ETL processes and workflow orchestration tools
• Hands-on experience with Linux and Cloud environments (Snowflake, AWS, or similar)
• Proven ability to develop and optimize algorithms for complex, domain-specific datasets
• Familiarity or strong interest in patent/IP data or similar specialized data domains
• Solid grasp of data architecture and scalable system design
• Research-driven with strong problem-solving and analytical skills
• Comfortable working independently and collaboratively in a startup environment
• Excellent communication skills and ability to document work clearly

Bonus

• Experience with workflow management tools like Apache Airflow
• Experience with search technologies like Apache Solr
• Background in intellectual property, financial markets, quantitative analysis
• Exposure to containerization (Docker / Kubernetes) and CI/CD pipelines
• Prior startup experience or working with proprietary tech stacks

At Quant IP you would

• Work on unique, impactful problems in the intersection of tech, IP, and data
• Join a tight-knit, high-impact startup team with room to grow and innovate
• Shape the future of data workflows and analytics from day one
• Enjoy an environment with a strong emphasis on learning and ownership
