My client, a leading global private credit hedge fund, is seeking a talented Senior Python Developer to join their London office on a contract basis, supporting the firm’s continued innovation in data-driven investment technology.

You’ll be embedded in a lean, highly skilled technology team, working directly with the CTO and collaborating closely with stakeholders across front office, risk, and operations.

Key Responsibilities:

• Designing and developing Python-based solutions across the investment and risk platform - You’ll be building robust back-end systems and services that interface with core investment data, ensuring scalability, performance, and clarity of design in a growing data and analytics environment.
• Collaborating with stakeholders across technology, investment, operations, and risk - You’ll work closely with a variety of business users to understand complex investment workflows and translate them into well-architected, well-documented Python code that delivers tangible business value.
• Driving quality through clean code, automation, and best practices - The role requires attention to detail, with a focus on delivering well-tested, high-performance Python applications that integrate into the wider ecosystem and can be easily maintained by both technical and non-technical users.
• Championing best practices in data governance, engineering and Agile development - You’ll play an important role in ensuring high standards of data quality, and supporting a collaborative team culture in line with Pemberton’s values of innovation, responsibility, and excellence.

They are seeking candidates with:

• Strong Python development experience in financial services or a comparable data-rich environment
• Proven experience building scalable applications and frameworks used by multiple stakeholders
• Exposure to financial datasets and/or fixed income, credit or private markets is highly desirable
