Senior Java Engineer – Financial Services Consulting | London

We're working with a leading financial services consultancy looking for a senior Java engineer to help shape architecture on complex, enterprise-scale systems as part of a growing engineering practice.

You'll join client-facing projects across financial services, building cloud-native backend systems and playing a key role in architecture decisions.

What you'll be doing:

  • Build high-performance, distributed backend systems using modern Java and Spring Boot
  • Lead service design and API development with a focus on robustness and maintainability
  • Own deployment on AWS end-to-end, with automation baked in
  • Contribute early and often to architecture discussions
  • Define testing strategies that teams can genuinely trust
  • Work closely with client stakeholders and engineering teams in agile settings

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.
