Job Purpose
We are seeking a talented and passionate AI Engineer to join our growing team. In this role, you will design, develop, and deploy AI solutions for our clients across various industries. You will collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to solve complex business challenges using cutting-edge data, machine learning, and AI technologies.

- Consult and guide clients by defining AI use cases, validating ideas through proof of concepts (POCs), and deploying scalable, production-ready systems.
- Build and maintain end-to-end AI systems, with a focus on scalability, observability, and continuous optimization of model performance using MLOps principles.
- Develop multi-agent and AI workflows, built from scratch or using low-code tools, that reliably orchestrate data, tools, and context into production-grade solutions.
- Architect robust and modular backend services, applying SOLID principles to ensure maintainability, testability, and seamless integration of AI components into broader software ecosystems.
- Design, document, and develop RESTful or GraphQL APIs that serve as the interface between AI workflows and end-user applications.
- Work closely with back-end engineers, front-end developers, DevOps, strategists, and clients, taking a leading role in aligning efforts and delivering impactful solutions.
- Communicate complex technical solutions clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including progress updates, demos, and presentations.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
