How does one learn about finance enough to do something like this?

I worked at Goldman for a few years. I would suggest doing something like that.

Can you elaborate what roles would be preferable when working at place like Goldman? What typical qualifications and experience are expected?

They shouldn't be much different from other engineering jobs. One thing they will look for is "business acumen". Learn all the finance buzz words, pay attention to the market, and credentialize. Finance people seem to love prestige and credentials (just my experiences). A degree which includes finance is good. You can also get a CFA foundations certs. A CFA charter would get you real respect, but I think they have experience requirements for that.
