Job Details

Job Title: Eagle Performance Business Analyst
Location: Remote, EST
Duration: 12 Months (Possibility of extension)
Client: Investment Company

Role Snapshot (What This Is Really About)
This is a critical, high-impact contract role drivinga multi-year transformation of Company's investment performance ecosystem.
They're migrating:

• FROM: EGLE (current Investment Book of Record & performance engine)
• TO: FactSet + Lakehouse (future-state architecture)

This isn't just BAU support. This is platform transformation + data strategy execution.
Core Mission (3 Pillars)

1. EGLE → Lakehouse Migration
   • Understand EGLE's performance model inside-out
   • Publish current-state performance data into the Lakehouse
   • Enable downstream consumers to stop pulling directly from EGLE
2. EGLE → FactSet Performance Lift
   • Translate EGLE performance logic into FactSet requirements
   • Support FactSet-calculated performance flowing back into the Lakehouse
   • Ensure zero disruption to end consumers
3. BAU + Enhancements
   • Handle day-to-day performance changes
   • Support small enhancements while big transformation work runs in parallel

Non-Negotiable Skills (Hari was VERY clear)
If a resume misses these, it's a no-go.

1. Deep Investment Performance Knowledge
   • Account-level performance
   • Daily returns, A-bar, methodologies
   • GIPS (important, but secondary)
2. Hands-on EGLE Experience (MANDATORY)
   • EGLE Performance
   • EGLE Data Enrichment
   • EGLE Data Mart
   • EGLE Star (nice to have, not the core)
3. EGLE + Performance Together
   • Not just finance theory
   • Not just tooling
   • Needs both, tightly coupled
4. Strong Communication
   • Will interface with business, tech leads, devs, QA
   • Needs to translate finance tech without hand-holding
5. Self-Starter / Mini Product Owner Mindset
   • Can run Jira boards
   • Write user stories
   • Own sprint & quarterly planning
   • Scrum Master exists-but this role drives the work

FactSet Experience

• Huge plus, not mandatory
• Makes the transition smoother
• Speeds up onboarding and delivery
