The CESA Futures data migration team follows waterfall principles. Quality Engineers are the custodians of quality within the scrum team, who implement the CESA Futures Test Approach defined by the QA Stream Lead. They embody the Quality Engineering approach:
- Ensuring quality is a full team responsibility across all test levels
- Governing and supporting the whole team to follow best practice
- Achieving the appropriate level of test coverage throughout the test lifecycle
- Enabling the use of automated tools to ‘shift left’ quality assurance and reduce risk – shortening the feedback loop for proving features
- Ensure applications are built to be tested via automation.
- Supports manual testing when all automation avenues have been exhausted.
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.
