We are currently recruiting for an Electronics Hardware Engineer to join a specialist engineering organisation developing advanced electronic systems for highly technical applications.
This role has come about due to continued growth and will see you join a small, highly capable engineering team responsible for the full lifecycle of electronic hardware development.
The Role:
You will be responsible for the design, development, and testing of complex electronic hardware, working across the full product lifecycle from initial requirements through to production and ongoing support.
Working closely with the wider engineering team, you will translate system and hardware requirements into fully functioning electronic designs.
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.
