FactSet creates flexible, open data and software solutions for over 200,000 investment professionals worldwide, providing instant access to financial data and analytics that investors use to make crucial decisions.
At FactSet, our values are the foundation of everything we do. They express how we act and operate, serve as a compass in our decision-making, and play a big role in how we treat each other, our clients, and our communities. We believe that the best ideas can come from anyone, anywhere, at any time, and that curiosity is the key to anticipating our clients’ needs and exceeding their expectations.
Python & C++ Senior Software Engineer – Data Access (FIP)
FactSet is seeking a highly skilled Senior Software Engineer to join our Data Access team — the single, powerful entry point to the FactSet Intelligence Platform (FIP). This is where every interaction begins: AI agents & tools, internal analytics, and client-facing APIs all connect through one unified endpoint and receive responses in a consistent, structured envelope enriched with provenance, source attribution, and entitlement transparency. Operating at the very front of FactSet's data ecosystem, you'll define this client-facing interface and orchestrate the systems behind it, delivering data with exceptional speed, security, reliability, and precision.
The platform handles immense volumes of low-latency requests, so strong engineering discipline is essential — you'll apply best practices in distributed systems, scalability, and performance to build infrastructure that is both resilient and efficient. It's a unique opportunity to shape a critical layer of FactSet's architecture, one that directly shapes the client’s experience and enables the next generation of intelligent applications. If you're passionate about building high-performance systems, simplifying complex data interactions, and making a measurable impact at scale, we'd love to hear from you.
