Backend Software Engineer (Python) | Senior Python Backend Software Developer | Python Software Engineer

📍 London (1 day per week in office)
💰 £75,000 – £95,000 + progression as company scales
đź’» Python, Django, AWS, Postgres

We’re working with a high-growth, Series B SaaS company hiring multiple Backend Software Engineers to build an AI-driven platform used by large enterprises to automate complex finance workflows.

The product is already deeply embedded with customers and relied on day to day, with strong expansion across the platform. As a Backend Software Engineer, you’ll be joining at a key growth point with plenty of greenfield work and the opportunity to shape how the platform evolves.

The role

As a Backend Software Engineer, you’ll join a small, cross-functional squad made up of backend, frontend, AI, product, and design, owning a specific area of the platform. Teams rotate regularly, giving Backend Software Engineers exposure across different parts of the product and keeping the work varied.

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.

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.

This is an environment where Backend Software Engineers are trusted with real ownership. You’ll be involved in designing solutions, shaping systems, and driving work forward rather than just picking up tickets.

There is also a strong focus on engineering quality. Backend Software Engineers here are encouraged to build things properly, with an emphasis on long-term maintainability over quick fixes.

AI is a core part of how Backend Software Engineers operate, actively used across engineering rather than treated as a separate initiative. They are also open to Backend Software Engineers from Go or TypeScript backgrounds who are happy to work in Python.
