As a key part of the Robinhood family, the Exchange Platform team owns the full service lifecycle. We are the architects of a modern, high-velocity ecosystem that enables our global expansion, ensuring the world’s longest-running exchange remains unshakeable. ### The Role As a Senior Backend Engineer integrated into the Exchange Platform team, you will be a key driver of our modernization strategy. You will be an essential part of building the new generation infrastructure for low-latency services in the cloud, adopting cutting-edge technologies to drive our high-velocity ecosystem. This role is based in our London office(s), with in-person attendance expected at least 3 days per week. At Robinhood, we believe in the power of in-person work to accelerate progress, spark innovation, and strengthen community. Our office experience is intentional, energizing, and designed to fully support high-performing teams. Requires participation in an on-call rotation to support business needs. ### What You’ll Do - Build Next-Gen Infrastructure: Architect and implement high-availability, low-latency cloud infrastructure that ensures performance and portability across our ecosystem. - Modernize and Scale: Lead the transition of our services to modern, containerized environments, optimizing deployment and scaling workflows. - Robinhood Ecosystem Integration: Manage and execute high-priority integration projects that align Bitstamp's backend with Robinhood's global infrastructure. - Evolve the Stack: Identify and implement backend improvements that enhance platform performance and reduce operational toil through intelligent automation. - End-to-End Ownership: Take full responsibility for complex projects from design to deployment, working independently to improve system effectiveness. - Cross-Functional Influence: Collaborate with teams across the organization to interpret complex technical requirements and influence processes that enhance our overall engineering velocity. - Maintain Platform Integrity: Participate in the on-call rotation, applying your deep knowledge of the system to solve difficult problems and ensure 24/7 reliability. ### What We Are Looking For - Applied Expertise: 4–5+ years of relevant experience in cloud engineering, with a strong background in containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and modernizing legacy architectures. - Technical Depth: Advanced knowledge of backend disciplines and practical experience with AWS services (ECS, EC2, Aurora, DynamoDB). - Proven Autonomy: An experienced contributor who has managed entire projects or processes, coordinating across different job areas to solve difficult, multi-faceted problems. - Operational Pragmatism: Someone who thrives on the challenge of taking a stable system and "paving the road" toward automation while balancing necessary day-to-day operational tasks. - Collaboration & Influence: Strong communication skills to guide and coach other employees, and the ability to influence stakeholders outside of your immediate department to reach technical agreements. - Project Mastery: Practical knowledge of project management and the ability to manage complex administrative and technical logistics within a fast-moving organization.
