You will work within a small team where you will pair-program (we operate using the extreme programming framework) to:
- Build resilient and adaptable fintech platforms and components in Java
- Refactor to improve code design
- Write lots of tests (every one of our commits is continuously and rapidly verified by thousands of tests)
- Automate the boring bits
Features of the way we work:
- We avoid silos by regularly rotating between teams to work on the whole system with an Our Code not My Code mindset and approach
- We practice trunk-based development and continuous integration: we treat every commit as releasable
- We treat broken tests as failures and revert where possible
- We practice TDD, BDD and DDD
- We automate as much as possible
- We pair program to ensure that everyone understands the context of what they are working on. We also believe that pairing drives quality, learning, cross-skilling, and builds empathy with other developers
- Sometimes we have to care about throughput and latency and so take this into account when writing code
- See Dave Farley walk through how our CI pipeline works - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHKHdp4H-8w
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.
