Who we are
We design, deploy and manage data platforms and solutions for regulated companies. Our clients turn to us for our range of expertise in providing independent guidance, advice and support across all areas of data and analytics.
We are proudly SAS Global Solution Provider Partner of the Year 2025 and a Posit Premier Partner. We are also Microsoft and Databricks partners.
What you’ll be doing
You’ll work alongside experienced consultants and platform engineers delivering modern analytics platforms for organizations across life sciences, financial services, and other highly regulated industries.
We actively support ongoing learning and professional development, giving you opportunities to expand your expertise across cloud technologies, analytics platforms and emerging tools.
Your primary duties and responsibilities will include:
- Assist in the design, deployment and configuration of Linux-based analytics platforms running on containers and cloud infrastructure.
- Work hands-on with Linux, containers and cloud services to build and support client environments.
- Support the setup and management of secure connectivity for platform components — networking, certificates and access.
- Help enable and configure APIs for integration with other systems and applications.
- Collaborate with senior engineers, DevOps, and Cloud teams to ensure smooth deployments.
- Monitor and troubleshoot platform performance under guidance.
- Document configurations and operational procedures.
- Participate in patching, upgrades, and maintenance activities.
- Follow security best practices including access control and authentication.
- Learn the analytics software we run on these platforms (SAS Viya and Posit).
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.
