This is an opportunity to combine machine learning, recommender systems, and Generative AI to solve real-world customer problems while delivering measurable commercial impact.

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.
This is a highly collaborative role where you'll partner with Product Managers, Engineers, and MLOps teams to take ideas from experimentation into production. You'll also help shape technical best practice across the team, championing robust experimentation, high-quality code, and scalable machine learning systems.
