Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) | Global Hedge Fund | London
I’m working with a leading Global Hedge Fund looking to hire a Senior Site Reliability Engineer into a small, highly capable engineering team in London.
This is a high-ownership role where you’ll help drive the reliability, scalability and performance of critical systems, splitting your time between operational support and the delivery of new infrastructure projects. You’ll have significant autonomy and take ownership of projects from initial design through to production.
The role will involve:
- Building and maintaining scalable cloud infrastructure
- Managing production Kubernetes environments
- Infrastructure-as-Code using Terraform & Helm
- Automation using Python / Bash
- Building and improving CI/CD pipelines
- Monitoring, alerting, logging & observability
- Linux systems and cloud-native networking
- Improving reliability through SLOs / SLIs
- Working closely with engineering teams and users
- Driving infrastructure projects from inception through to production
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.
