AWS Platform Engineer (Inside IR35 Contract)

Location: Leeds, 2 days per week

Contract: 3 months initially, with a good chance of extension

Rate: Up to £530 per day, inside IR35

The Opportunity

We're working with a software engineering consultancy that specialises in helping organisations build and scale high-quality technology platforms.

You'll be working on an exciting project with a medical technology organisation, supporting the continued development and scaling of their technology platform as they embark on a significant AI initiative.

We're looking for an experienced AWS Platform Engineer who can operate across both the technical and stakeholder sides of the project.

This is a hands-on, cross-functional role where you'll be expected to understand technical challenges, identify gaps and work with different teams to find practical solutions.

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.
