Senior Security Engineer (Cryptography & Platform Security)

London | Porto | Riga (Hybrid)

Salary: We can talk into the 100k+ range


Most security jobs want reviewers. My client wants builders.

If your idea of Security Engineering is sitting in review queues, approving pull requests, or filling out spreadsheets for auditors, this isn't the role for you.

They're a regulated payments fintech scaling towards banking-licence territory and rebuilding Security Engineering around automation, platform thinking, and shared ownership. They're looking for a Senior Security Engineer who can help them scale security through engineering, not process.

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.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

  • Application Security at Scale – building automated AppSec capabilities, not manual review queues.

What We're Looking For

  • 5+ years in Security Engineering
  • Strong production Go experience (essential)
  • Experience building and running security platforms/services
  • Cloud security expertise, particularly AWS
  • Hands-on payment cryptography experience

What This Isn't

  • A review-queue role
  • Red-team only
  • GRC or audit focused
  • Cloud-KMS-only cryptography experience

Why Join?

Security here isn't a gatekeeper function. Their job is to build the tooling, platforms, and guardrails that help engineering move faster and safer.

You'll get exposure to banking-scale security challenges, deep payment cryptography work, and the opportunity to shape a security function that's being rebuilt from the ground up.

If you're an engineer who does security - not a security person who occasionally scripts - we should talk.
