Our client is an early-stage, high-impact, revenue-generating AI startup that is fundamentally redefining business automation. While most applied AI companies focus on selling software tools, this organization sells completed business outcomes—delivering highly automated, autonomous pipelines that directly close revenue for clients ranging from fast-growing startups to Fortune 500 enterprises.
With strong product-market fit, consistent month-over-month growth, and a clear roadmap, the engineering team is currently scaling up. This is a rare opportunity to join an elite, tight-knit, and highly leveraged engineering team where every line of code directly drives revenue and shapes foundational systems from scratch.
The team operates in a fast-paced, high-momentum environment that values intense collaboration. To maintain this high-engagement culture, this role is 100% on-site (five days a week) at the client's office in Piccadilly, London.
Key Responsibilities
- End-to-End System Ownership: Own complex technical problems from scope to deployment, building and iterating on foundational systems from scratch with real users from day one.
- Next-Generation Infrastructure: Build and scale custom calling and dialer infrastructure with autonomous AI agents at the core.
- Autonomous AI Workflows: Develop and optimize high-throughput AI Inbound SDR systems capable of autonomously managing thousands of callbacks and converting them to scheduled meetings.
- Closed-Loop Intelligence: Build post-interaction intelligence layers that generate real-time insights, customized proposals, and targeting signals to feed directly back into campaigns.
- High-Scale Data Pipelines: Engineer advanced prospecting engines featuring custom web scraping, AI-driven qualification pipelines, and highly optimized list-logic systems.
- Stack Optimization: Work within a modern, robust tech stack utilizing TypeScript, React, Next.js, AWS, OpenSearch, Trigger.dev, ClickHouse, and Datadog.
Experience & Background
- Top-Tier Tech Experience: Proven software engineering experience at a globally recognized, high-caliber technology organization (e.g., FAANG, Bloomberg, Stripe, Shopify, Revolut, Datadog, or direct equivalent) is strictly required.
- Startup DNA: Prior experience working in a fast-growing startup or highly agile team (<20 people, such as YC-backed companies), demonstrating a track record of wearing multiple hats and shipping high-impact code.
- Professional Tenure: Minimum of 3+ years of professional software engineering experience for mid-level candidates, and 6+ years for senior-level candidates.
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.
Technical & Academic Qualifications
- Full-Stack Proficiency: Deep expertise in full-stack web development, with strong production experience in TypeScript and React (Next.js experience is highly preferred).
- CS Fundamentals: Exceptional computer science fundamentals, including data structures, algorithms, and performance trade-offs, backed by a Computer Science degree or equivalent from a top-tier university.
- Architectural Capability: Proven ability to design complete, end-to-end systems from scratch, demonstrating true systems-level thinking rather than simply executing on pre-defined architectures.
- AI & LLM Tooling: Practical experience building with AI/LLMs, autonomous agents, RAG systems, or advanced LLM-powered application features.
Location & Commitment
- On-Site Presence: Must be currently based in London (or fully willing to relocate) and committed to working on-site five days a week in Piccadilly (no exceptions).
- Competitive Compensation: Market-aligned base salary with highly flexible stock-for-salary trade-off options, structured to reward those who value meaningful equity in a high-growth, revenue-generating startup.
