We are looking for an experienced Engineering Manager to join a growing SaaS scale-up to lead a team of talented software engineers who are delivering modern, customer-facing SaaS products. This role will suit an Engineering Manager who enjoys combining deep technical expertise with a passion for developing engineers and building high-performing engineering teams.
You’ll play a key role in driving engineering excellence, ensuring high standards of software quality, improving team performance and fostering a culture of continuous learning and collaboration. Whilst your primary focus will be leadership, you’ll remain close enough to the technology to provide technical guidance, review architecture and code quality, and help solve complex engineering challenges.
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.
