📍 Location: London, onsite
We’re super excited to have partnered with a recently funded, early-stage startup building a full-stack, AI-native audit firm, reimagining how one of the world’s most established professional services industries operates.
Having recently raised their pre-seed funding, they’re building an exceptional team to fundamentally transform auditing through AI, automation, and cutting-edge engineering.
Founded by ambitious entrepreneurs, they’re looking for an outstanding AI Engineer / Product Engineer to join their growing engineering team. This is an opportunity to get in incredibly early, take ownership, and help build something with the potential to reshape an entire industry.
They have an extremely high hiring bar and are looking for the very best emerging engineering talent. This could be a recent graduate from a top university or an engineer with a few years of experience, provided you have the technical ability, ambition, and drive to match.

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.
