Location: London (4 days a week in the office) · Salary: circa £100k · Full-time
We're hiring 2x Product Engineer who wants to own real problems end to end, not pick up tickets.
The company We're working with a small, high-bar engineering team in London. Series-funded, growing, and past the point of proving the product works. Now it's about building fast without the wheels coming off.
- The team is small enough that what you ship this week is in front of users next week.
- No layers, no committees, no waiting three sprints for a decision.
The role You'll work across a TypeScript and React frontend and a Node backend, with Python and Go elsewhere in the stack. We're leaning backend for this one, but if your instinct is frontend and you can hold your own on the backend, we want to talk.
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.

-
Product Engineer means what it says. You'll take a problem, figure out what to build, build it, ship it, and watch what happens.
-
You'll have opinions about the product and the room to act on them.
-
If you like the part of the job where you talk to a user, understand the actual problem, and go fix it, this is that job.
-
The bar is high and the feedback is fast. You'll get better here quicker than most places.
Why 4 days in the office Because speed. The team ships fast, and the fastest way to unblock a decision is to turn around and ask the person next to you. Tight feedback loops, less waiting, more shipping. We're upfront about it so nobody's surprised: this is an in-person team, four days a week in London.
What we're looking for
- 5+ years building and shipping software that real people use
- Strong TypeScript, and comfortable in a Node backend
- A track record of owning things end to end, not just closing tickets
- Good judgment about what to build and what to skip
- Someone who talks to users and lets that shape the code
