Production Engineers (PEs) at Meta are specialized software engineers who develop the underlying infrastructure for all of Meta's products and services, forming the backbone of every major engineering effort that keeps our platforms running smoothly and scaling efficiently. PEs work across Meta’s product and infrastructure teams to ensure our services are reliable, performant, and capable of supporting billions of users. This means writing high-quality code, solving complex problems in live production, and tackling challenges that impact over 2 billion people worldwide. Our PEs are embedded in teams across the spectrum — from products like Instagram, WhatsApp, Oculus, and Videos to critical backend services such as Storage, Cache, and Networking. The team brings together diverse levels of experience and backgrounds. Working alongside experienced engineers across the organization, you’ll contribute to code and systems that go into production and are used by millions every day. In Production Engineering at Meta, we solve novel engineering problems daily — solving problems at a scale few others face.

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.
