Our Client
Our client is building the browser agent platform that leading fintechs and global enterprises trust to automate and secure the applications their employees rely on every day. Backed by $3.5M+ in funding, their platform is already running thousands of mission-critical workflows in production.
About the Role
This is a founding-level hire. You'll take on a high-ownership role, working directly with customers to invent new ways to securely automate web tasks shaping product direction and building core infrastructure for a category that's still being defined.
What They've Built
- An on-device browser agent paired with a browser extension that autonomously completes web-based tasks inside customers' work applications today focused on two workflows: automating employee sign-in for security visibility and policy enforcement, and handling admin lifecycle tasks (like user provisioning) to cut manual effort and tighten access control.
- Non-technical users configure these workflows themselves, and clients range from fast-scaling fintechs to public-sector insurance providers whose security teams defend against serious threats, including state-sponsored actors.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What You'd Be Building
- The core browser-automation engine, making it more robust and capable of handling increasingly complex tasks.
- The on-device browser environment itself, focused on reliability and security.
- A workflow builder that makes new automations faster to create.
- Platform-level controls and analytics giving customers real visibility.
- The end-to-end encrypted infrastructure underpinning all of it.
How You'd Work
- With genuine autonomy shaping the roadmap through the problems you choose to solve, not just the ones assigned to you.
- Directly with customers, understanding their goals and shipping the features that move their business forward.
- On problems with no existing playbook, since this is one of the few teams deploying browser-using agents for mission-critical work.
- Across the entire stack dashboard, desktop app, backend, infrastructure-as-code.
- And with real intensity: from problem to shipped solution in days, sometimes within a single week.

What They Need
- At least a year building production software for real users.
- Strong debugging instincts and systems thinking (this environment is inherently messy end-user devices, end-to-end encrypted data).
- Genuine appetite for direct customer contact.
- A desire for true end-to-end ownership, from diagnosing an issue to shipping the fix.
Nice to Have
- TypeScript, Postgres, Electron (macOS/Windows/Linux), or browser extension experience.
- Hands-on exposure to Puppeteer or Selenium.
- A background in security engineering zero-trust concepts, end-to-end encryption.
- Familiarity with identity/SSO tooling such as Okta, 1Password, Entra ID, or JAMF.
