Trade Production Support Engineer

Hybrid / Top compensation


Ever wondered what's actually happening behind a $3 trillion trading day?

We're hiring a Senior Front Office Production Engineer to join the technical operations team behind a leading global electronic trading platform in fixed income and derivatives, supporting a live, real-time trading ecosystem spanning 40+ markets, three time zones, and thousands of institutional clients.


This isn't ticket-queue support.

You'll be the person who can look at a wall of alerts, work out what actually matters in the next 90 seconds, and make the right call whilst explaining it clearly to the people relying on you.

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.

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.


What you'll actually do:

  • Own the application layer of a mission-critical trading platform across Production and UAT
  • Diagnose issues fast (kogs, code, OS, network etc)
  • Be the technical bridge between engineering, the trading desk, and clients when things go sideways
  • Build the automation that means the same incident doesn't happen twice
  • Take part in go-lives, DR testing, and configuration management for a platform that genuinely cannot go dark

What you'll bring:

  • Real production experience on a live, high-stakes system (trading, exchange, prop, or genuinely real-time fintech platforms)
  • Comfortable across Windows and Linux, confident with networking fundamentals
  • SQL fluency, scripting ability (Python, PowerShell, or similar)
  • Ability to read object-oriented code even if you don't write it daily
  • A calm head under pressure and the instinct to communicate while you're still mid-investigation, not after
  • Willingness to work a flexible schedule, including early starts, evenings, and a weekend maintenance rotation
