My client, a leading multi-strategy hedge fund, is seeking a senior Application Support Engineer to join their growing technology function in London.
The successful candidate will be a founding member of a newly formed application support team, working alongside one other to build the function from the ground up. This is a broad, hands-on role supporting front office and operations applications - largely internally developed, with some third-party systems - while helping to establish the best practices, logging standards, incident management processes and SLAs that will underpin the team long term.
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.
The ideal candidate will have 5+ years' experience supporting applications in a trading environment, with genuine front office exposure and a strong working knowledge of the trade lifecycle and the products being supported. Candidates must be able to speak confidently to how a trade works, investigate PnL, risk and STP/booking issues, and hold their own in conversations with traders and developers alike.
Candidates should have solid SQL skills, the ability to read code and suggest small changes, and a proven track record working to defined SLAs, response times and escalation policies. Experience across L2 and L3 support, monitoring, alerting and automation is essential, as is a genuine interest in improving supportability rather than simply clearing tickets.
