Are you looking for a role where you can take real ownership of features and see your work directly impact users? Do you enjoy working across the full stack in a modern cloud environment, building products that genuinely help people develop and progress? We're working with an ambitious training and development company that is reshaping how organisations deliver learning. As their platform continues to scale, they're looking to hire an Intermediate Software Engineer with strong Node.js, React, and AWS experience to join their growing engineering team.
The Opportunity
You'll join a collaborative product-focused team, contributing to a modern learning platform used by organisations across the UK and internationally. This is a hands-on engineering role where you'll work across both backend and frontend, delivering high-quality features in a scalable AWS environment. You'll have the autonomy to own work end-to-end, while continuing to develop your technical depth and architectural understanding.
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.
