A globally renowned hedge fund is building the next generation of cloud-native infrastructure to power cutting‑edge trading and research platforms, and they’re looking for a talented cloud engineer to be part of the journey. As a cloud engineer, you will play a pivotal role in engineering, scaling, and operating highly sophisticated AWS environments that drive real‑time, high‑performance systems. You’ll join a collaborative team of elite engineers, where every cloud engineer contributes to building secure, resilient, and ultra‑scalable platforms powered by AWS and Kubernetes.
This is an exciting opportunity for a cloud engineer to work on complex distributed systems, designing and optimising infrastructure that supports large‑scale compute workloads in a fast‑paced, high‑impact environment. You’ll be solving challenging technical problems while shaping the future of cloud‑native platforms within a world‑class engineering team. The ideal cloud engineer will bring strong AWS engineering experience alongside deep Kubernetes expertise (essential). This role is perfect for a cloud engineer who is passionate about infrastructure, platform engineering, and pushing the boundaries of modern cloud technologies.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, build, and maintain scalable AWS cloud infrastructure for production workloads
- Architect and manage Kubernetes (EKS) environments for high-performance compute and orchestration
- Implement and optimise cloud-native solutions focused on reliability, scalability, and performance
- Own infrastructure automation using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or similar)
- Ensure high availability, monitoring, and observability across cloud platforms
- Drive best practices in cloud security, access control, and governance
