The Brand
They are one of the UK's fastest-growing outdoor retail names — a business built by adventurers, for adventurers, with a global footprint spanning hundreds of stores and a rapidly scaling e-commerce operation. Driven by a genuine passion for getting people outside, we've grown from a single store into an international retailer while staying true to the entrepreneurial, no-nonsense spirit that built us. We move fast, we back our people, and we're serious about building the infrastructure that keeps a global retail operation running without a hitch.
The Role
This is a rare opportunity to shape the technical backbone of a business operating at genuine scale — hundreds of stores, multiple markets, and a technology estate that's evolving fast. As Core Systems Engineer, you won't be stuck in a ticket queue; you'll be leading the modernization of identity, infrastructure, and disaster recovery across a hybrid environment, with real autonomy to identify what's broken and fix it. Think identity platform redesigns, resilience testing that actually matters when things go wrong, and infrastructure projects with your name on them — all within a small, high-trust engineering team where your input directly shapes the direction of the estate.
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.
Who We're Looking For
We want someone who gets genuinely excited by solving hard infrastructure problems — not just keeping the lights on, but actively hunting down inefficiency and driving change. You'll have 5+ years in core infrastructure or systems engineering, deep comfort with identity platforms (Active Directory, Entra ID, or similar), hands-on disaster recovery and fail over experience, and a methodical, security-first mindset. If you thrive with ownership, enjoy documentation as much as delivery, and want to be a trusted voice in a lean, high-impact team — this is built for you.
