Your new company
You'll be joining a global financial services organisation currently investing heavily in cloud transformation, platform engineering and DevOps capability. With major programmes underway across cloud infrastructure and cyber remediation, this is an opportunity to join a high-performing engineering team delivering modern, cloud-native solutions at scale.
Your new role
As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you'll play a key role in building and maintaining a modern AWS platform, supporting critical cloud infrastructure and driving DevOps best practice across the engineering function. You'll work closely with developers and platform teams to automate deployments, improve resilience, enhance observability and deliver secure, scalable cloud environments.
This is a hands-on role focused on infrastructure, Kubernetes, automation and cloud engineering rather than software development.
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.
