Hedge Fund Technologist
London | Hedge Fund | Technology
Tempest Vane Partners is working with a newly established, diversified credit hedge fund that is looking to add a technically versatile Hedge Fund Technologist to its team.
This is a broad position offering exposure across development, data, cloud, business applications, and infrastructure, with the opportunity to work closely with senior stakeholders across the firm.
Reporting to the C-suite, you will sit at the intersection of technology and the wider business, helping teams solve technical problems, improve existing processes, and introduce new tools where they can add genuine value.
The firm has a strong preference for practical, scalable solutions and makes extensive use of enterprise platforms and low-code technology. This role will therefore suit someone who enjoys being hands-on and getting involved in a variety of projects, rather than specialising in one particular area.
The Role:
- Develop and maintain internal tooling and automation, primarily using Python
- Work with PostgreSQL, including database development, querying, and performance optimisation
- Support the firm's Microsoft 365 and Azure environment, including Entra and SharePoint
- Build and enhance workflows and reporting through Power BI and Power Automate
- Provide technical support and oversight across elements of the firm's infrastructure and trading environment
- Work with external IT providers and help ensure technology services are delivered effectively
- Identify practical opportunities to use AI tools such as ChatGPT and Claude across the business
- Get involved with emerging AI capabilities including connectors, agents, and development tools
- Work closely with teams across the organisation to understand problems and implement technology solutions
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.

Why This Role?
Rather than being confined to a traditional development, data, or infrastructure remit, this position offers unusually broad exposure to the technology function of a growing hedge fund.
You'll work directly with senior stakeholders, have visibility across the entire technology environment, and have the opportunity to shape how the firm uses technology as it continues to grow.
For the right person, this could be an excellent long-term platform towards becoming a senior technology leader.
