Senior.NET Engineer
London (Hybrid, 2-3 days per week in the office)
Build critical financial infrastructure that moves money at scale
We're looking for a Senior.NET Engineer to join a high-performing engineering team responsible for the systems that power payments, foreign exchange (FX), ledgers, reconciliation, compliance, banking integrations and client-facing platforms.
This is an opportunity to work on a true end-to-end financial platform where engineering quality, reliability and ownership matter. You'll design and build distributed services that handle real-world complexity, from payment processing and FX workflows to integrations with banks and payment schemes.
If you're passionate about building resilient systems, solving complex engineering challenges, and owning services all the way through to production, we'd love to hear from you.
What You'll Be Doing
- Design, build and operate services using.NET 10 and Azure.
- Own services throughout their lifecycle, from architecture and development through to production support.
- Build scalable asynchronous and event-driven systems that remain reliable under failure scenarios, retries and duplicate message delivery.
- Work across a broad range of domains including:
- Payment processing
- FX pricing and trading
- Ledger and reconciliation systems
- Banking and payment scheme integrations
- Payment compliance
- Client-facing platforms
- Collaborate closely with engineering teams to define and evolve system architecture.
- Drive best practices in security, resilience, observability and operational excellence.
- Use AI-assisted development tools effectively and pragmatically to improve engineering productivity.
- Mentor and support other engineers through code reviews, design discussions and knowledge sharing.
- Contribute to a culture of continuous improvement and technical excellence.
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.
