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 the role involves
You'll join a dedicated AI Engineering team that acts as the focal point for AI across the business; designing, building and maintaining the platforms, tools and APIs that power both internal workflows and customer-facing products.
Day to day that means:
- Building reusable AI infrastructure
- Developing evaluation frameworks and guardrails to ensure model reliability
- Working with RAG systems, MCP servers and agentic patterns
- Helping other engineering teams leverage what you build
You'll take full ownership of projects from requirements through to deployment and operation, and act as an internal advocate for strong AI engineering practice across the business.
