The Team
This is an outstanding opportunity to join one of the largest alternative asset managers. Technology is central to Man's business strategy, and we are constantly evolving to stay ahead. Our culture embraces change and innovation, with engineering at the heart of our operating platform.
We are seeking an Associate Engineer to join our Finance & People Technology team. Reporting into the Finance & People Technology Lead, you'll join the team as an associate cross-platform engineer supporting the day-to-day engineering, operation, and continual improvement of the SaaS estate that underpins both the Finance and People/HR domains.
Enterprise Management Cloud sits at the core of both estates — but it's fundamentally one platform among many. Our ecosystem spans a broad set of best-in-class SaaS tools, including (talent acquisition), CultureAmp (employee experience), Kyriba (treasury), FloQast (financial close), and Workato (integration & automation), all connected through integrations into upstream and downstream systems. You'll work fluidly across this full footprint and the wider tech ecosystem around it - not as a single-product specialist, but as a versatile engineer who can pick up any system, understand how data flows between them, and improve the whole.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Role Responsibilities
- Configure, maintain & troubleshoot the platforms across Finance and People — at the core, plus CultureAmp, Kyriba, FloQast, and others
- Own a share of the BAU & support rota across the full estate — resolving tickets, user queries, and small enhancements
- Build, support & improve integrations between platforms — much of it orchestrated through Workato and other middleware — ensuring clean, reliable data flow
- Monitor, triage & resolve integration errors, applying durable root-cause fixes over workarounds
- Deliver process & config improvements — refining controls, reducing manual steps, tightening documentation
- Use AI to engineer better and faster — applying AI tools, agentic tooling, and Man Group's in-house AI to automate, prototype, and troubleshoot. A core expectation, not a side project
- Implement best practices for scalability, supportability, maintainability, and performance
- Maintain rigorous change-control & audit documentation
Key Competencies
Required
- Some professional working experience — internship, placement year, grad scheme, or 1–2 years in a tech, engineering, BA, HRIS, or finance-systems role. This is not an entry-level role.
- Exposure to enterprise SaaS platforms. Experience with CultureAmp, Workato, Kyriba, CultureAmp or FloQast is a plus — but none is a prerequisite. We care more about how fast you learn new systems than your existing tool list.
- Comfort working across multiple SaaS platforms at once, picking up new systems quickly — this multi-platform fluency is the heart of the role
- Aptitude for hands-on system configuration and change-control discipline
- Foundational understanding of integrations (APIs, file-based interfaces, middleware/iPaaS like Workato) and how data flows between systems
- A track record of building simple "vibe-coded" automations/apps — plus fluency with (or eagerness to master) agentic AI coding tools like AI tools
- Genuine enthusiasm for AI as an everyday engineering tool — we expect you to reach for AI tools and our in-house AI instinctively
- A curious, builder mindset — prototype, automate, and ask "why" before "how"
- Methodical approach to BAU support & troubleshooting — root-cause fixes over workarounds
- Strong written & verbal communication across technical and non-technical stakeholders
