A leading organisation is looking for a Senior Data Engineer to join its Data Platform team, working across a major programme focused on role-based access control (RBAC), data security and governance within GCP.

  • Supporting IAM/IDAM enhancements, service-account access and access reporting
  • Designing and implementing data classification and governance-by-design
  • Maintaining and improving a GCP/BigQuery lakehouse environment
  • Building and supporting pipelines using Python, Airflow/Cloud Composer and dbt
  • Identifying security vulnerabilities and supporting remediation
  • Implementing robust CI/CD, testing and Terraform-based infrastructure
  • Working across integrations including Fivetran, Tableau and Alation

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.
