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.
We’re looking for people who challenge the status quo and are constantly looking to shape their working environment to make it an exciting, fun and interesting place to work.
Keeping things fresh is something we encourage in our working practices, but the culture of continuous improvement is equally as important in our technical approach to building and delivering modern digital services.
As a valued team member, your knowledge and experiences will be used to change the way we build solutions including utilizing new tools and technologies to solve new problems or improve existing services. Working on our services means you’ll have your own team, but you’ll also be a part of several communities spread over multiple sites. This means you’ll always have people on hand to share and discuss ideas and get help when needed. Like your team, your communities are also self-sufficient, so if you want to change something it’s within your power to do so.
Ideal candidates will have strong technical competence in:
- Scala
- Play
- Unit testing and integration testing
- Experience of Cloud based infrastructure is desirable, along with an understanding of application security principles, continuous integration and continuous delivery.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
As a well-rounded Agile developer, we expect adaptability plus general skills in problem solving, business analysis, quality assurance, application design and architecture to compliment your Scala development specialism.
In an Agile environment communication is key and therefore we expect professionalism, good communication skills and approachable team members.
As a Scala Developer your primary focus will be to deliver user stories whilst working as a part of a multi-disciplined team.
You’ll be working closely with user researchers and designers to build, deploy and support your Scala Play microservices using well-established software development techniques such as TDD and pair programming.
We get involved with all stages of service delivery including configuring, deploying and monitoring using industry standard tooling, to truly work in a DevOps capacity. Whilst working in a collaborative environment you are going to meet a variety of different people who, like you, have a wealth of knowledge and experience.
As a part of one or more communities you will have the opportunity to influence how we grow as a delivery center and how we do things by sharing ideas and working with others to make things better.
