We are hiring a Software Engineer to join the founding technology team behind a new AI-enabled equity hedge fund.

This is an early-stage build within an established investment business, giving you the pace and ownership of a start-up with the backing and infrastructure to build properly. You’ll work directly with engineering, quantitative research and investment teams, building technology that has a real impact on the investment process.

What you’ll be building:

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.
