NLData Engineer - Trading
OptiverAmsterdam
Why this is on the board
The work itself does not touch an urgent problem: you build data pipelines for a trading firm. The only leverage is the salary, because if you give away a large share of it year after year to charities that demonstrably achieve a lot (earning to give), you can sometimes fund the work of several people at such a charity. That only works if you really keep that giving up.
