Senior Data Engineer

Tumelo • Full-time • Bristol, City Of Bristol, England, United Kingdom • max £80k / year • 3w ago

Who are we?

Tumelo is a venture-backed, impact-led financial technology firm. We believe every investor should be empowered to use their shareholder voice to create change on issues like climate, gender and human rights at companies where their money is invested. Our mission is to build and scale the technology to make that possible.

We're a close-knit, fun and dynamic team. We champion autonomy and flexibility. We get stuck in and act strategically. We love food, rounders, board games... and having fun together, from canvas painting to our annual company offsite.

We aim to enable every institutional and retail investor to be an active owner of the companies their money is invested, breaking up the unbalanced influence of fund managers and returning power to true shareholders. Big change takes time but we are patient and ambitious in equal measure; influencing the system, building a movement, empowering the world.

As an Engineer, you will be immersed in start-up life, collaborating closely with the product, technical and operational teams - managing the data that glues these teams and Tumelo's products together.
