Job Specifications

Build a Platform Engineering team at a smaller Quant-focused Hedge Fund.

You’ll shape the next phase of their engineering strategy, including setting the roadmap for a new AI platform hosted in AWS.

It's a smaller environment here, and things move quickly; as a result, you’ll need to be very hands-on. You’ll ideally have recently progressed into a Lead position and have managed a team of ~5 Engineers.

You’ll design and run core services, maintain CI/CD pipelines, build an internal developer platform, and lead a small senior team, setting standards and best practices.

You’ll ensure reliability, scalability, security, and observability for compute- and data-intensive workloads, while collaborating closely with engineering, data, and business teams.

You’ll also stay at the forefront of cloud, container, and ML/AI infrastructure, driving adoption where it adds value, all while contributing directly to architecture, implementation, and mentoring your team.

Naturally, you’ll ideally have a background shaping the Engineering direction at a buy side firm whilst leading a small team.
