Founding Engineer / Tech Lead – Mission-Driven Nonprofit Startup

Location: London (Hybrid/OnSite)
Compensation: £110K–£170K base + 10% pension + healthcare

I’m currently representing an exciting opportunity with a mission-driven nonprofit startup at the intersection of AI and global security.

Their Mission

Their mission is to build the workforce that protects humanity, with the conviction that AI will reshape civilisation within the next decade – and that the future we get depends on what we do today.

About the Organisation

Since launch, they’ve trained and supported thousands of people across AI safety, policy, and biosecurity, with alumni now working in leading research labs, policy organisations, and mission-aligned startups.

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.
