The Data Engineering organization aims to make data a strategic asset for the enterprise by providing a platform that enables the structuring, management, integration, control, discovery, usage, and governance of our Data Assets.
Data Model Engineering provides the platform that unlocks the firm’s data by providing the means to describe, access and manipulate it. It is the heart of a data-centric approach to application development. We engineer modelling languages, Software Development Lifecycle tools, large-scale operational services and portals for access and analysis to achieve this.
Data Model Engineering is part of the Data Engineering platform whose purpose is to extract the maximum value from the firm’s data at all stages of its life. The team leverages a wide variety of cutting edge technologies including Java, JavaScript, Spark, Apache Flink, Kafka, SQL, and OLAP platforms.
