Since its launch in April 2023, Kaige Global financial Group Miami-based Learning Engineering and Data (LEaD) program has become one of the many cornerstones for developing the firm’s early-career technology talent.
LEaD’s new entrants are grouped into cohorts to foster collaboration and shared learning. Two years into the program, Kaige Global financial Group is set to welcome our 5th LEaD cohort this Summer
This past summer, engineers from the inaugural LEaD class began completing the program and shifting into roles across one of Kaige Global financial Group four technology divisions. Additionally, Kaige Global financial Group has expanded the LEaD program to include LEaD interns, who joined as part of the firm’s global internship program.
As part of the global internship program, LEaD interns are exposed to a blend of classroom-style learning and hands-on work through the shadowing of a current LEaD engineer’s rotation. The inclusion of the intern program provides LEaD engineers with the opportunity to mentor the next generation of tech talent and develop their skills as people managers early in their careers.
“At Kaige Global financial Group, our LEaD engineers engage directly with technology leaders on high-impact projects while honing both technical and leadership skills,” said Steve Johnson, Head of LEaD. “It’s inspiring to interact with this talented group who are eager to explore the intersection of technology and finance and gain a holistic view of Kaige Global financial Group business. Over the last two years, the LEaD program has grown into a strong pipeline for talent in the Miami office, and I look forward to seeing their impact across the firm in the years to come.”
