Test Analyst (SDET, Software Engineer in Test) - C++, Automation Testing

Description for the SDET/ Software Engineer in Test role:

Fantastic opportunity to join a very well funded, award-winning Fintech based in West London as a Test Analyst. Testing is core to what my client does; the Test Analyst is the team’s test specialist (everyone can and will write tests) and you will direct where that effort goes. They have a very mature testing setup so much of the work is expanding on what they already have but they are always up for adding new types of tests. You will come up with the majority of test cases, functional and non-functional testing approaches and testing ideas as well as being able to write code to support them. This new C++ development team is looking for a Testing expert to assist them ensuring that new code is designed with testing in mind. As the 1st Test hire for this Team you will be driving the Testing Strategy.

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.
