- Drive improvements in data quality, observability, resilience, and operational excellence across the analytics stack.
- Reduce technical debt and improve developer experience through better tooling, automation, standards, and engineering practices.
- Mentor and support engineers across the team through technical guidance, coaching, feedback, and knowledge sharing.
- Collaborate closely with Product, Analytics, Engineering, and business stakeholders to align on outcomes and reduce delivery risk.
- Build and support reporting and BI solutions that enable scalable decision-making across the organisation.
- Champion analytics engineering best practices including testing, documentation, CI/CD, and code review.
- Lead or contribute to platform initiatives such as migrations, governance improvements, model refactoring, and platform modernisation.
- Represent Analytics Engineering in technical forums and cross-functional strategy discussions.
- Foster a culture of inclusion, collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement.
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.
