Role Overview
You’ll architect and deliver critical infrastructure projects spanning the firm’s on-premise data centres and cloud environments. Key focus areas include:
- Leading the migration from Nomad to Kubernetes across a hybrid infrastructure environment
- Designing highly available systems that support real‑time trading operations
- Expanding the firm’s cloud footprint (AWS/Azure/GCP) while maintaining on‑prem capabilities
- Owning projects end‑to‑end from design through production
Qualifications
- Production experience with Kubernetes (EKS/AKS/GKE or bare‑metal)
- Strong Linux systems background; Windows experience is beneficial
- Track record delivering cloud migrations and managing hybrid environments
- Experience supporting mission‑critical, highly available systems
What makes this opportunity unique
- Greenfield projects: Build from scratch rather than maintaining legacy systems
- Technical diversity: Work across data centres, cloud platforms, and container orchestration
- Finance exposure: An opportunity to break into hedge funds without needing prior domain knowledge
- Competitive compensation: Strong base salary plus hedge fund bonus structure
- Balanced hybrid working: 3‑4 days per week in St James offices
