Python Software Engineer

Location: London (Hybrid)
Experience: 2 - 6+ Years
Compensation: Up to £170,000 Base + Industry-Leading Bonus!

A leading FinTech firm in London is seeking a talented Backend Python Software Engineer to join its growing technology team. This is an opportunity to work in a fast-paced, high-performance trading environment where technology is central to the firm’s success across multiple asset classes!

They’ll find the best team to suit your skillset and interests, but you could be working on:

  • Building robust, scalable backend systems using Python to support business-critical trading and operational platforms.
  • Designing and developing high-performance backend services, APIs, and microservices that power mission-critical applications.
  • Working with large-scale data systems, distributed architectures, and real-time data processing pipelines.
  • Optimising application performance, reliability, and scalability across complex trading systems.

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.
