Senior Manager, Core Infrastructure Engineering
Senior Systems Architect (Distributed Systems)
Career Level - M3
About the Role
Manages a team delivering scalable distributed systems and components across a 2–4 quarter horizon. Standardizes engineering practices and scalability requirements for high-throughput, hyper-scale workloads, ensuring effective use of distributed state tools and data plane platforms.
Guides teams to design fault-tolerant, in-service-upgradable systems while setting SLO-aligned durability/availability targets and implementing resiliency mechanisms such as load-shedding, throttling, and rate-limiting.
Provides oversight for KPIs, telemetry, and moderately complex dashboards, while directing design efforts for:
- Functional/correctness requirements
- Fault-injection tests
- Replication/synchronization strategies
Ensures proactive incident management, operational readiness, and on-call coverage, while driving encryption/access control practices, remediation plans, and compliance documentation.
Oversees development and maintenance of automation/IaC and partners with teams on change-management plans to enable safe patching, updates, and rollbacks.

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.
