About the Role

A growing AI company is looking for a technically strong Research Scientist or Engineer to join early and help build systems that get smarter about the people using them, learning from how someone interacts with the product and using that to shape the experience they get. The team blends machine learning, applied research, and product-facing engineering, and is led by a founder with a solid research background.

You’d be joining at a formative stage, with real input into how the product’s core technology takes shape.

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.

The Work Involves

  • Building out ways to measure whether the system is responding appropriately given what it knows about a given user
  • Turning real usage and feedback into structured signals the model can learn from
  • Running training experiments aimed at improving response quality based on human feedback
  • Digging into cases where the system gets it wrong — misreads a user, holds onto outdated info, or responds inconsistently
  • Weighing in on technical decisions as the product architecture comes together
