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’ll Do
- Build and maintain frontend functionality using JavaScript, TypeScript and Node.js.
- Develop accessible interfaces and help ensure services meet relevant standards.
- Collaborate on technical designs and break requirements into deliverable changes.
- Integrate applications with APIs and supporting systems.
- Write automated tests, participate in code reviews and contribute to CI/CD delivery.
- Help improve the maintainability, security and reliability of the codebase.
What We’re Looking For
- Strong JavaScript, TypeScript and Node.js development experience. Your recent work should demonstrate a practical approach to testing and accessible services.

Depending on the assignment, we’re also looking for:
- HTML/CSS and browser-based testing using Selenium or Playwright.
- Express/Fastify and unit testing with Jest or Mocha.
- GDS standards and the GOV.UK Design System.
- Cloud-hosted applications and service integrations.
- Technical design, leadership and clear communication within an Agile team.
Nunjucks is useful for some assignments, but is optional in the £330/£340 briefs.
Please apply with your CV, availability, current clearance status and ability to meet the Newcastle onsite requirements.
