Senior Python Developer

Job Description Back-End Developer, Portfolio Management System Dedicated Engagement — Hurricane Capital Role Snapshot Engagement: Dedicated resource, employed/contracted through Transient.AI, invoiced to Hurricane Capital. 100% committed to Hurricane's work — not shared across accounts. Level: Mid-Level back-end developer (not junior, not principal). Location: Remote. Onshore or offshore, but must work U.S. East Coast hours. Type: Full-time, dedicated. Start: As soon as possible. MVP target: end of year. Works with: Rob and Rehan (Hurricane), plus Transient-side engineering for code review. The Work Hurricane Capital is building a portfolio management system from the ground up. This is fully Greenfield — the infrastructure does not exist yet, so you are building it, not maintaining someone else's. The immediate focus is Bloomberg connectivity and the Python back-end that market data flows through. You will be a dedicated engineer for Hurricane, working alongside Rob and Rehan in real time. Because the codebase lives on the Transient side and is reviewed before merge, you will also coordinate directly with Transient engineering. What You'll Own ● Build back-end services and APIs in Python from scratch for the portfolio management system. ● Implement and troubleshoot Bloomberg API connectivity for market data ingestion. ● Design and maintain the data layer — Postgres and SQL, with Snowflake as the cloud data warehouse. ● Work with Azure cloud infrastructure as the system requires. ● Collaborate live over Teams during East Coast hours to co-work and troubleshoot with Rob and Rehan. ● Coordinate with Transient engineering on code review and merges into the shared codebase. What Good Looks Like ● A working MVP of the portfolio management system is delivered by end of year, built in parallel with existing workstreams. ● Bloomberg connectivity is completed and stable, with market data flowing reliably through the Python APIs. ● Hurricane's work moves in real time — no waiting on cross-account turnaround, because this capacity is dedicated. ● Code clears Transient-side review cleanly, with trust established during hiring so there is no gating delay. Must Have ● Strong Python for back-end and API development. ● Hands-on Bloomberg API experience. ● Ability to work U.S. East Coast hours consistently (non-negotiable — daily live collaboration depends on it). ● Database experience: SQL and Postgres. Strong Plus ● Snowflake (cloud data warehouse). ● Azure cloud experience. ● JavaScript. ● Familiarity with capital markets or market data products. Nice for Later The MVP does not require AI/ML work. Over time the system is expected to move in that direction, so appetite to learn and grow into AI-enabled features is a genuine plus — and part of what makes this role interesting. Why This Role ● Completely Greenfield — you build the entire infrastructure from the ground up, not patch an existing system. ● Dedicated to one team, working directly with Rob and Rehan rather than split across clients. ● A clear path to grow into AI-enabled portfolio management as the system matures.
