Given that both current co-founders have limited technical skills, our ideal CTO is willing to take responsibility for building and managing the technology behind Sagefund.
*We don’t expect our CTO to have a background in finance or investing, but they should be curious to learn about it!*
In order to launch our MVP, we need to build the following:
An asset selection algorithm, based on modern economic principles. The algorithm should be able to scan all available ETFs and filter them down. The end result should be a set of ~12 different portfolios (of 4-8 ETF products), designed for different user needs.
The ideal candidate will have a good grasp of maths and statistics, and will be capable of translating financial and economic equations into code.
On the website, users will express their particular investment needs, and our system must be able to match those preferences with one of our portfolios.
We need a safe backend system that is connected to the API of a broker partner, in order to execute the sales and purchases of our customer’s portfolios.
During regular time-intervals, we need an algorithm that automatically rebalances our customer’s portfolios.
Support us in applying for funding and grants to further expand the Sagefund team.
Flesh out our website, to include user-areas, which depict the current state of their investments, and give them the option to buy/sell more financial products.
We don’t expect our CTO to be able to build all of this themselves, but they should be excited to learn or outsource different parts of the project.
From a personal perspective, we are looking for someone whom is genuinely interested in the field of investing (modern portfolio theory in particular) and will find it exciting to work on this project!

Data Delivery Professional
UK Our purpose is to use the power of communications to make a better world. For each other, for our customers, for society and our communities. We need you to help us do this.
Why this role matters The Data Production Professional will be part of a technical team responsible for the creation, development, maintenance and running of our Fibre Network & Delivery (FND) Business Unit data sets. This role is available in multiple UK locations although our preference is a London or Leicester base. This role is important as data is the lifeblood of any business. Without accurate data FND would not be able to generate the analytics and insight needed to operate effectively. The role holder will have an expert understanding of data, and in particular our data, data sources, and systems. You will work on projects across a number of products and programmes where you will be responsible for data building and maintenance activities across all of our products. You will untangle the complex data which currently exists, and turn this into structured data which will be used by various teams across BI and wider FND to drive operational insight. As a data expert in FND you may coach other less experienced members of the team, or provide technical support to analysts in operational teams.
What you'll be doing
Responsibility for the creation, management, and development of the data sets on our Oracle warehouse that are used to make decisions and influence our 10,000 desk and filed staff, 7000 contractors and key stakeholders across Openreach.
An expert on supplying data to, and collecting data from, stores such as systems and databases.
Build and maintain data in line with FND’s data strategy.
Working with key stakeholders to understand the tools and data available, tying data back to operational decision making and context as required.
To work with other technical experts in Technology and CTIO to address and solve FND’s data problems.
We'll also need to see these on your CV
A highly capable developer of Oracle SQL that links datasets together to answer core questions and allows people to extract the new datasets.
An ability to explain technical aspects clearly and concisely.
Automation skills so that data builds flow regularly and reliably.
Ability to deal with ambiguity / unknowns and still make progress on multiple projects at once.
Ability to self-teach new skills and a hunger to improve.
Desirable Big Data & Haas
Why choose us? Business Intelligence is responsible for the data, analytics, visualisation, complex statistical modelling and insight which enables FND to make the most insightful decisions to operate effectively. We’re split into a Data Engineering team, an Analytics team, a Statistical Modelling (Data Science) team, and a specialist Regulatory Analytics team. We’re a team of around 40 people, spread around the country (so we’re used to virtual working), and we have a remit to grow the team to 55+ people because of the value we’re seen to bring. We’re at the centre of some hugely exciting change in FND. We’ve just reinvested in a new Enterprise visualisation tool to be rolled out across our team; we’ve just upgraded our infrastructure to ensure to improve the speed and stability of our systems; and we’ve invested in new external training and development opportunities for our people. And most excitingly, we’re working on a cultural change piece – trying to find out how analytics can change the way we work across the organisation. If you feel that your skillset matched the above, we are keen to hear from you! We value different perspectives, skills and experiences. Diversity makes sense for us, our customers and our ambitions. We’re creating an inclusive working culture where people from all backgrounds can succeed. That’s why we welcome applications from all parts of the community. #LI-OR

To constructively challenge and create recommendations, based on solid analysis, that allows FND to make informed decisions on the order and priority of improvements.
