Application Support Engineer

Tier-One Quantitative Trading Firm
LDN (Hybrid)
£170,000 + Bonus/Perks

An elite, tech-driven trading firm widely regarded as one of the most selective and innovative in the space is expanding its high-performance Application Support team in London.

This is not your typical support role. You’ll be joining a small, tight-knit team where your impact is felt immediately. The position blends real-time production support for cutting-edge electronic trading systems with hands-on engineering and automation work.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Supporting ultra-low-latency trading systems across global markets
  • Troubleshooting and resolving time-critical production issues
  • Building automation and tooling to enhance system reliability and efficiency
  • Collaborating closely with traders, developers, and infrastructure engineers

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.
