Infrastructure Engineer, Insurance Consulting
Location: Remote
Employment Type: Permanent, Full Time
Experience: Around 2-4 years (we're flexible for the right person)
Salary: Competitive salary + bonus
About the role
Our Insurance Consulting team works with insurers on technology-led projects. We work in an agile, hands-on way: we listen to what a client needs, move quickly, and often stand up a proof of concept to show what's possible rather than talk about it.
We're looking for an infrastructure engineer to join us. Infrastructure will be your core strength, but this isn't a narrow, single-lane role. You'll be a practical, can-do engineer who is comfortable writing some Python, configuring things where needed, and getting stuck into wider technical work across a range of client engagements.
You won't be client-facing in the sense of owning relationships, as our consultants do that. But you will work with clients' technical teams, discussing architecture and configuration details with them so that what we build fits their environment.
What you'll do
- Design, build and configure cloud infrastructure for client projects and proofs of concept, often at short notice
- Work with client technical teams to agree specific configurations, networking and security setups, and to understand how their environments work
- Work within enterprise constraints, including private endpoints, network controls, access management and formal change and approval processes
- Write Python and scripts to automate, integrate and support wider project work beyond infrastructure
- Contribute to the delivery of projects, picking up technical tasks wherever the team needs them
- Adapt to changing requirements as client needs evolve, and help the team make sensible technical trade-offs
- Document what you build so it can be handed over cleanly to clients and colleagues
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.
What we're looking for
Essential
- Hands-on infrastructure experience in a large enterprise environment. You should understand what it takes to deploy in a regulated, security-conscious organisation: private endpoints, network segmentation, security reviews, change control and the approvals that come with them.
- Around 2-3 years of relevant experience. We would rather have someone very strong and earlier in their career than someone more experienced who is less sharp.
- Solid experience with at least one major cloud platform. Azure is our most commonly used, but clients use all of the hyperscalers, so strong AWS or GCP experience with a willingness to switch across is just as welcome.
- Working knowledge of Python, or a strong willingness to build on scripting experience. You don't need to be an expert, but you should be happy to write code, not only configure.
- Good communication skills. You can discuss technical details with a client's engineers clearly and credibly.
- A flexible, pragmatic attitude and the ability to work to changing client requirements.

What makes someone a great fit
You're a hands-on, capable engineer who enjoys variety. You like being dropped into a new problem, working out what matters and delivering. You're curious beyond your specialism and comfortable being asked to do a bit of everything technical, and you stay calm in complex enterprise environments.
