Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

You’ll need strong programming experience, with Python essential, alongside practical experience in several of the following areas:
- Agentic AI, Graph RAG or traditional RAG.
- Large language models and generative AI.
- Computer vision, vision-language models or audio processing.
- Docker, Linux/Unix command line, Git and software testing.
- AWS or Azure cloud platforms.
- Data governance, security and responsible AI practices.

It would also be useful to have experience with:
- GPU workloads in cloud environments.
- Monitoring ML models and data pipelines.
- API development.
- CI/CD pipelines.
- DevOps and data engineering principles.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
You’ll be comfortable explaining technical ideas to non-technical audiences, presenting recommendations and working closely with both internal teams and external stakeholders. Consultancy experience is useful, but experience delivering projects with clients, partners or other external users will also be considered.
This role would suit someone who enjoys staying close to the technology, is interested in the rapid development of GenAI and wants to work on meaningful projects where security and reliability really matter.
Please note: Any offer will be subject to successful BPSS and SC clearance. This typically requires five years of continuous UK address history, with no periods of 30 consecutive days or more spent outside the UK, and eligibility to hold a British passport without dual nationality at the point of application...flexibility to work at client and partner sites may also be required.
