To make the right investment decisions, our clients require access to the most relevant experts and their insights – we enable this through private consultations and exclusive content drawn from expert interviews.
Our clients consist of some of the largest private equity funds, hedge funds, mutual funds and management consulting firms, who are serviced by a team of over 900 employees located across eight global offices.
Third Bridge operates in a global, multi-billion-dollar market with double digit annual growth and has consistently received accolades for Great Places to Work and the top 100 fastest growing companies.
Technology & Product Function Overview
The Technology & Product function is led by our Chief Information Officer. We are investing heavily in product, data and technology capabilities, enabling us to deliver innovative products and solutions, and deep insight market intelligence to our clients.

The function is in a transitional and transformational phase and we are looking to build out the team with people who are able to help guide and shape what the future looks like. This is a great opportunity to become a key member of the Product Data team and help shape and develop the Product Data strategy and key initiatives across Third Bridge.
Job Description
What will you do?
As a Principal Engineer at Third Bridge, you will support a wide range of activities and people. Applying a mentoring and facilitation mindset with your team, you encourage them to follow best practices, and deliver to best in class standards. Alongside the Head of Engineering, you’ll make sure our people have the right approach with their work, upholding a culture of engineering for test, deployment and support.
With a ‘bigger picture’ view, you will help to shape the design and build of solutions, in line with the architectural strategy. You’ll work in an Agile environment with colleagues from different disciplines across our Tech and Product department. You’ll encourage networking across the whole of Third Bridge and the wider technical community, including external third parties.
Leading by example, you’ll support your teammates by always striving for improvements: sharing best practices; offering training opportunities; providing technical reviews; and keeping ahead of trends and technologies that can better support our business and our colleagues.
This is a great opportunity to put your own stamp on how things are done, aiming for simplicity in solution design, and helping the upskilling and transformation of the engineers around you. Third Bridge is in an exciting period of change and growth, so there’ll always be future opportunities for you to progress horizontally or vertically.
Qualifications
What will you bring?
Working as Principal Engineer, you truly embody the ‘first amongst equals’ ethos. Your balance of technical ability and human interaction will be essential to get the best from your domain teams.
You think pragmatically about development principles and practices, with experience in coaching, thought leadership, and driving improvements. You’re naturally curious, exploring all the options, and listening to others’ ideas and views.
Your technical background as a senior engineer or tech lead should include:
Equally important is your ability to build peer level relationships across the business. You’re personable and approachable, and you’re more of a coach than a teacher: supporting us to be better programers without solving it all yourself. You’ll have strategies to create a close-knit team despite the challenges of hybrid workers and international departments, and you’ll find opportunities to get us together in the London office to collaborate and socialise.
Additional Information
How will you be rewarded?
