- Join an elite team of creatives and technologists from Nike, Instagram, and Apple, backed by the legendary investors behind Spotify, Facebook, and A24.

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.
What You Will Do
- Design and ship end-to-end ranking and retrieval models for content feeds, balancing engagement, discovery, and growth for artists and superfans.
- Build sophisticated people recommendation systems using social graph modeling and affinity analysis to spark millions of new friendships and connections.
- Develop and scale ML-driven trust and safety systems, including content classification and abuse detection, to protect a rapidly expanding global community.
The ideal candidate
- Proven experience shipping recommendation, ranking, or search systems at scale within a high-growth consumer social or music streaming environment.
- Deep technical proficiency in Python and the modern ML stack, with the ability to build and maintain your own data and serving infrastructure.
- A pragmatic, shipping-focused mindset that prioritizes iterative improvement and rigorous A/B testing over theoretical polishing in a vacuum.

We never post fake jobs
This isn't a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network.
Sometimes Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description.
We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it.
Give Jack a spin! You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.
