- Job Description
- You’ll be joining a quant-focused hedge fund at a key stage of growth as they re-architect their on-prem solutions and migrate a number of key services to the cloud (AWS). Their cloud journey is at the initial stages, meaning you’ll enjoy working in a greenfield environment within an already successful trading environment. The fund operates more in line with a fintech as opposed to an established hedge fund. It’s a 250-headcount business, things move fast here.

Collaboration is key here, you'll initially work 5 days on-site before dropping down to 4 days per week after passing probation. It’s a varied role, you’ll design cloud solutions and implement these in code before supporting the build. There’ll be a strong focus on automation here.

Whilst working in a financial/trading environment is advantageous, they are open to Engineers from outside of the industry.
