The Role
We are seeking an experienced GCP Data Engineer to design, build, and optimize scalable cloud-native data platforms on Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

The role involves close collaboration with architects, data scientists, business analysts, and application teams to deliver high-quality, secure, and reliable data solutions.
Your Responsibilities
- Build batch and streaming data ingestion frameworks using Dataflow, Dataproc, Pub/Sub, and Cloud Functions.
- Develop reusable and optimized data processing solutions using PySpark and Python.
- Implement orchestration workflows using Cloud Composer (Apache Airflow).
- Ensure data quality, integrity, lineage, and governance across data platforms.
- Implement partitioning, clustering, and performance tuning strategies in BigQuery.
- Manage structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data processing requirements.
- Implement IAM policies, data security controls, and compliance requirements.
- Participate in technical design discussions, code reviews, and solution governance meetings.
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.
