Do you want to shape the future of value transfer?

At Elliptic, we're solving problems that have never been solved before. Our technology helps financial institutions and crypto businesses navigate one of the most complex and fast-moving compliance challenges in the world. Our engineering platform sits at the heart of everything we do, and we're growing fast.

We're hiring multiple Engineering Managers to lead teams across three tracks as we scale. This is a rare opportunity to join at a genuine inflection point, with the autonomy to build teams and working cultures you're proud of.

Our Open positions

We're hiring one EM for each of the following areas:

Data Engineering You'll lead the engineers building the data pipelines, ETLs, and analytical infrastructure that power Elliptic's compliance intelligence. A background in data engineering or analytics engineering is important here. You'll need to credibly support and challenge engineers working with large-scale data systems.

DevOps and Platform You'll lead the engineers responsible for the reliability, scalability, and developer experience of Elliptic's platform. An infrastructure or platform engineering background will help you earn trust quickly and make good technical judgement calls alongside your team.

Product Engineering You'll lead two teams building Elliptic's customer-facing products: one focused on a high-throughput screening API with a supporting interface, and one building a visual graph explorer used by investigators and analysts. A full-stack or API engineering background will help you understand the trade-offs your teams face day-to-day.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
