The Role
We are building integrated human motion-capture and neurophysiological recording systems for both controlled lab studies and naturalistic, in-the-wild data collection.
We need a reliable, hands-on assistant to support day-to-day operations at the London capture site. Working under the Hardware Systems Engineer, you'll prep and run sessions, keep the rigs and data in order, and make sure every capture follows the established protocols. This is an execution role: you'll run the standards someone else has set, and do it consistently.
Reasons to use Rodeo

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.
