About the Role
We are looking for a Senior Full Stack Developer to help shape the next generation of data applications within our Data & Analytics function.
As our technology stack evolves, we're moving beyond traditional reporting solutions and investing in modern, interactive applications built on the Databricks platform. This role will play a key part in establishing our front-end application capability, building scalable solutions, and defining engineering best practices.
You'll work closely with data engineers, analytics teams, architects, and business stakeholders to design and develop enterprise-grade applications that enable users to interact with data in new and innovative ways.
This is an opportunity to influence technical direction, establish standards, and help build a modern application development capability from the ground up.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, develop and maintain modern front-end applications built on the Databricks platform.
- Build full stack solutions that integrate seamlessly with enterprise data platforms and APIs.
- Develop intuitive, responsive user interfaces for data-driven applications.
- Work closely with backend developers, data engineers and business stakeholders to deliver high-quality solutions.
- Champion engineering best practices across application architecture, testing, security and deployment.
- Help define governance and development standards for front-end applications within an enterprise environment.
- Review code, mentor developers and contribute to technical decision-making.
- Ensure applications are scalable, secure and maintainable.
- Participate in solution design, technical planning and architecture discussions.
- Support CI/CD processes and modern software engineering practices.
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.
