AI Engineer (LLMs, Agents & Applied Data Science)

This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing AI practice and work on cutting-edge projects spanning Generative AI, LLMs, AI Agents, Machine Learning, and Data Science. The role offers genuine responsibility, exposure to client-facing delivery, and a clear pathway to leadership.

Its hybrid working with your base office being Edinburgh, London, Manchester, Leeds or Birmingham.

The Role

As an AI Engineer, you'll play a key role in delivering AI-powered solutions across a variety of client projects. You'll work with Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), AI Agents, and traditional machine learning techniques to solve real-world business challenges.

Working alongside senior AI and Data Science leaders, you'll own significant project workstreams, turning solution designs into robust, production-ready software whilst helping to mentor junior colleagues and contribute to the growth of our AI practice.

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.
