Senior Platform Engineer
A leading global hedge fund is hiring a senior platform engineer to own the design, build, and operation of its cloud platform, working directly with technologists across infrastructure, engineering, data science, and trading technology to ensure the foundation supports business-critical workloads at scale.
This is a hands-on technical role with genuine autonomy. You'll architect multi-account cloud infrastructure, establish governance and security baselines, engineer hybrid connectivity, and provide operational support for data analytics and AI workloads, all while progressively taking ownership from external partners. You'll shape how cloud is used across the firm rather than inherit constraints.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design, build, and operate cloud infrastructure at scale: multi-account architecture, identity systems, network design, security controls, and governance frameworks
- Develop infrastructure-as-code artifacts using modern declarative tools; establish CI/CD automation and policy enforcement
- Engineer and operate hybrid cloud networking, identity federation, privileged access workflows, and data protection controls
- Own cloud cost optimization, system reliability, and production readiness across data-heavy and AI workloads
- Collaborate with engineering, data science, and platform teams to identify risks, set technical standards, and drive infrastructure improvements
- Take ownership of cloud architecture, governance strategy, and platform evolution across critical business systems
- Drive the transition of cloud operations from external vendor to internal ownership
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.
