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.
What we’re looking for:
- Understanding of SOC operations and incident response
- Experience with security technologies such as SIEM and EDR
- Scripting/programming skills across Python, React or Go
- Understanding of cloud-native/serverless architecture
- Knowledge of Infrastructure-as-Code and CI/CD
- A curious, engineering-focused mindset with a passion for automation and continuous improvement
Experience with AWS, Terraform, Elastic Security, vendor APIs, PostgreSQL/NoSQL or a background across Security Engineering, SOC, DevOps, SRE or Platform Engineering would be particularly attractive but not essential. What is more important is someone who has a passion for engineering and continually looking to improve. The role will be office based in Glasgow 2/3 days per week.
