Description

We’re working with a leading global FinTech organisation that is looking to hire a Senior Network Engineer into its London engineering team.


This is a senior hands-on position covering the design, implementation and ongoing engineering of business-critical network infrastructure supporting a highly available, performance-sensitive financial environment.


You’ll work alongside senior engineers globally and take ownership across both engineering and large-scale network projects.


Key Responsibilities



  • Design, implement and support enterprise and data centre network infrastructure

  • Engineer and manage Arista environments, including deployments through Arista CloudVision

  • Work across routing, switching, firewalls, load balancing and DNS

  • Support CDN and DDoS infrastructure, including platforms such as Akamai / Prolexic

  • Contribute to the organisation's migration of workloads into public cloud environments

  • Work on new data centre connectivity and infrastructure deployments

  • Troubleshoot complex network and performance issues across production environments

  • Contribute to network automation and operational tooling

  • Work closely with global engineering teams on architecture, standards and technical improvements

  • Support highly available and latency-sensitive financial systems


Core Requirements



  • Strong senior-level Network Engineering experience

  • Excellent routing and switching fundamentals

  • Load balancing experience, ideally F5

  • Strong understanding of DNS

  • CDN experience, ideally Akamai / Prolexic

  • Firewall and network security experience

  • Experience designing and implementing networks rather than purely supporting them

  • Background working within complex, highly available production environments


Highly Desirable



  • Financial Services, FinTech or electronic trading experience

  • Public cloud networking experience across AWS, Azure and/or GCP

  • Experience with Arista CloudVision

  • Network automation using Python, Ansible or similar

  • AIOps / AI-driven network operations exposure


Why Join?


This is an opportunity to join at a particularly interesting point in the network team's roadmap. Rather than purely maintaining an established environment, you’ll have the chance to contribute to major cloud, data centre and low-latency infrastructure projects while working within a global FinTech environment.
