Senior Engineer (Projects) | £50,000 | Stoke-on-Trent
The Opportunity:
Join a technology-driven engineering organisation delivering resilient, secure infrastructure that supports critical national services. This role is centred on project delivery, platform engineering, and infrastructure transformation, with minimal focus on BAU support.
Working as part of a close-knit, office-based team, you'll take ownership of end-to-end infrastructure projects across on-prem and cloud environments - including virtualisation, networking, security, and Microsoft 365 platforms.
Key Responsibilities:
- Leading the design and delivery of infrastructure projects, from initial stages through to implementation and handover.
- Driving cloud and Microsoft 365 initiatives, including migrations, tenant configuration, identity integration, and security enhancements.
- Engineering and optimising hybrid infrastructure environments, integrating on-prem VMware platforms with cloud services.
- Delivering platform improvements and transformation projects across compute, storage, networking, and identity.
- Acting as a senior technical lead on projects, making key design decisions and ensuring best practice engineering standards.
- Designing and implementing secure solutions (firewalls, VPNs, conditional access, endpoint security, Zero Trust principles).
- Leading infrastructure upgrade and lifecycle projects, including major version upgrades, migrations, and re-platforming activities.
- Contributing to ISO 27001 compliance projects, including control implementation, gap analysis, and audit readiness.
- Designing and testing disaster recovery and business continuity solutions as part of project delivery.
- Producing detailed technical designs, implementation plans, and documentation aligned to project outcomes.
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.
