Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
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.
As a Backend Engineer, you will design, build, and maintain cloud-native services using Python and modern backend technologies, working with frameworks such as FastAPI or Django, alongside PostgreSQL and other distributed databases, event-driven technologies such as Kafka or Pulsar, and cloud infrastructure across AWS. You’ll work on high-volume data processing, APIs, microservices, and distributed systems, with a strong focus on scalability, reliability, and performance. You’ll also contribute to technical direction, engineering best practices, and mentoring within the team, while taking end-to-end ownership of the systems you build, including participating in an on-call rotation. The role requires a pragmatic and adaptable approach, balancing long-term technical strategy with the changing needs of a fast-moving energy industry.
