About the Role

  • Partner with engineering teams to design API-driven and event-based system integrations
  • Define and document:
    • Data flows
    • Schemas
    • Lineage across fraud detection and reporting systems
  • Interpret scheme rules (Visa, Mastercard, Amex) and ensure compliance in platform behaviour
  • Work closely with compliance teams on:
    • SARs (Suspicious Activity Reports)
    • Alert handling
    • Regulatory reporting expectations
  • Support product management in shaping:
    • Roadmaps
    • Prioritisation
    • Delivery milestones
  • Act as Product Owner on client engagements across:
    • Issuing
    • Acquiring
    • Risk and compliance propositions
    • Own and prioritise product backlogs
    • Write clear user stories and acceptance criteria
    • Run grooming, planning, and review ceremonies with client teams
  • Facilitate workshops and stakeholder alignment across:
    • Risk
    • Data
    • Engineering
    • Operations
  • Contribute to:
    • UAT (User Acceptance Testing)
    • Validation
    • Production readiness for risk & financial crime solutions

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.
