Addepar embraces a global, flexible workforce model with offices in New York City, Salt Lake City, Chicago, London, Edinburgh, Pune, and Dubai.

The Role

We're looking for a Senior Portfolio Data Engineer to join our Data Engineering team in Edinburgh.

A core part of Addepar's business relies on us being able to quickly and correctly ingest data from various sources, including third-party data providers, custodial banks, data APIs, and direct user input. The data engineers on the Portfolio Data Engineering team help build and maintain the transformation and cleaning steps of our ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) pipeline before it can be stored and accessed by our customers in a standardized fashion. As a data engineer on this team, you'll build components within the ETL pipeline that automate these cleaning and transformation steps. As you gain more experience, you'll contribute to increasingly challenging engineering projects within our broader data infrastructure.

This is a crucial, highly visible role within the company. Your team is a key component of growing and serving Addepar's client base with minimal manual data cleaning effort required from our clients or our internal data operations team.

What You'll Do

  • Write code and design pipeline architecture.
  • Build pipelines that support the ingestion, analysis, and enrichment of financial data.
  • Improve existing pipelines to increase throughput and data accuracy.
  • Work with data analysts to map financial concepts to our internal data models in a repeatable and precise manner.
  • Understand data models and schemas, and collaborate with engineering staff to recommend extensions and changes.
  • Use investigative tools and database queries to automatically flag irreconcilable data within production datasets.

Who You Are

  • A degree in computer science, engineering, mathematics, or a related technical field.
  • Experience with object-oriented programming preferred.
  • Familiarity with technologies such as:
  • Python, Apache Spark / PySpark, Java/Spring
  • Amazon Web Services
  • SQL, relational databases
  • Understanding of data structures and algorithms
  • Interest in data modeling, visualization, and ETL pipelines
  • Knowledge of financial concepts (stocks, bonds, etc.) is encouraged but not necessary.

Our Values

  • Act Like an Owner: Think and operate with intention, purpose, and care. Own your work.
  • Build Together: Collaborate to unlock the best solutions. Deliver lasting value.
  • Champion Our Clients: Exceed client expectations. Our clients' success is our success.
  • Drive Innovation: Be bold and unconstrained in problem solving. Transform the industry.
  • Embrace Learning: Engage our community to broaden our perspective. Bring a growth mindset.

In addition to our core values, Addepar is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We seek to bring together diverse ideas, experiences, skill sets, perspectives, backgrounds, and identities to drive innovative solutions. We are committed to promoting a welcoming environment where inclusion and belonging are held as a shared responsibility.

We will ensure that individuals with disabilities are provided reasonable accommodation to participate in the application or interview process, perform essential job functions, and receive other employment benefits. Please contact us to request accommodation.

PHISHING SCAM WARNING: Addepar has been made aware of phishing scams involving imposters posing as hiring managers via email, text, and social media. These scammers create misleading email accounts, conduct remote "interviews," and make fake job offers to collect personal and financial information. Please note that no job offers will be made without a formal interview process, and we will not ask you to purchase equipment or supplies as part of onboarding. If you have questions, contact TAinfo@addepar.

Machine Learning Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the machine learning jobs market in the UK is going through another big shift. Foundation models and generative AI are everywhere, companies are under pressure to show real ROI from AI, and cloud costs are being scrutinised like never before. Some organisations are slowing hiring or merging teams. Others are doubling down on machine learning, MLOps and AI platform engineering to stay competitive. The end result? Fewer fluffy “AI” roles, more focused machine learning roles with clear ownership and expectations. Whether you are a machine learning job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter trying to build ML teams, understanding the key machine learning hiring trends for 2026 will help you stay ahead.

Machine Learning Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK machine learning hiring has shifted from title‑led CV screens to capability‑driven assessments that emphasise shipped ML/LLM features, robust evaluation, observability, safety/governance, cost control and measurable business impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for ML engineers, applied scientists, LLM application engineers, ML platform/MLOps engineers and AI product managers. Who this is for: ML engineers, applied ML/LLM engineers, LLM/retrieval engineers, ML platform/MLOps/SRE, data scientists transitioning to production ML, AI product managers & tech‑lead candidates targeting roles in the UK.

Why Machine Learning Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Machine learning (ML) has moved from research labs into mainstream UK businesses. From healthcare diagnostics to fraud detection, autonomous vehicles to recommendation engines, ML underpins critical services and consumer experiences. But the skillset required of today’s machine learning professionals is no longer purely technical. Employers increasingly seek multidisciplinary expertise: not only coding, algorithms & statistics, but also knowledge of law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. This article explores why UK machine learning careers are becoming more multidisciplinary, how these fields intersect with ML roles, and what both job-seekers & employers need to understand to succeed in a rapidly changing landscape.
