Engineering Lead
London - Hybrid (2 days)
£115k–£120k + Bonus + Equity
I'm working with a high-growth fintech that's building the infrastructure powering the next generation of private markets.
They're looking for a hands-on Engineering Lead to lead a small team (4–5 engineers) while remaining close to the code.
Why this role stands out:
- High ownership, low bureaucracy
- Shape product direction, not just deliver tickets
- Lead a small, high-calibre engineering team
- Modern stack (TypeScript-first with growing Go adoption)
- AI-native engineering culture
- Real influence on architecture, product, and team growth
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.
You'll thrive here if you:
- ✅ Enjoy leading engineers while still building
- ✅ Have strong backend/full-stack experience (Typescript highly preferable)
- ✅ Love partnering with Product to solve customer problems
- ✅ Get excited by startups, ownership, and moving fast
- ✅ Are already using AI to improve how you build software
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
A great opportunity for someone who wants the impact of an early-stage startup, without the usual early-stage risk!
