Location: Cardiff (Onsite)

Following our recent acquisition by SmartSearch, Credas Technologies is entering an exciting new era of accelerated growth and innovation. As an award-winning, values-driven technology business, we deliver cutting-edge digital solutions that transform due diligence compliance, remote identity verification through biometric facial recognition, and customer engagement processes. This new chapter strengthens our ability to scale, innovate, and deliver even greater value to our clients.

About the Role

As a Developer, you’ll join a small, collaborative Agile team in Cardiff, working to deliver high-quality business applications that transform how we serve our clients. Working across the full technology stack—C# .NET, Angular, and SQL Server—you'll design, develop, maintain, and support solutions while contributing to efficient, client-facing processes.


Key Responsibilities

Development

  • Design, develop, and maintain new and existing application features using C# .NET (backend services) and Angular (frontend interfaces).
  • Build responsive, user-friendly digital solutions for business and compliance needs.

Database Maintenance

  • Maintain, optimise, and troubleshoot SQL Server databases to ensure data integrity, performance, and reliability.

Automation & Testing Support

  • Assist the quality assurance (QA) team by creating, maintaining, and executing Playwright automated test scripts for improved software quality.

Agile & Collaboration

  • Actively participate in Scrum ceremonies, including:
    • Daily stand-ups
    • Sprint planning
    • Backlog refinement
    • Sprint reviews
    • Retrospectives

Deployment & Continuous Delivery

  • Support deployment processes across development, test, and production environments, ensuring smooth software releases.

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.
