Combine your passion for software engineering with a drive to tackle sustainability and climate change.

This forward-thinking organisation is looking for an early-career full-stack developer to help deliver digital transformation projects with real environmental impact. You’ll work across the stack, gain mentorship from experienced engineers, and develop skills that go well beyond a typical graduate or junior role.

What you’ll do:

  • Build and maintain both front-end and back-end components for new digital solutions
  • Develop user interfaces using React.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS
  • Support back-end services with Node.js (Express)
  • Work with MongoDB for data storage and management
  • Contribute to AWS cloud infrastructure and deployment
  • Assist with containerisation using Docker/Kubernetes
  • Implement authentication systems (OAuth 2.0, Auth0, AWS Cognito)
  • Design and consume RESTful APIs and apply security best practices (e.g. OWASP)
  • Collaborate through Git-based version control, documentation, and code reviews

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.
