About Amodo
Amodo is a hardware engineering company building the 21st century’s most important technologies. Our team of mechanical, electronic, firmware, and software engineers are trusted by world-leading startups, universities, governments and philanthropists to solve pressing technical challenges.
We are selective in the projects we take on and proactive in seeking out where our exceptional engineering teams can make the most impact. We believe in differential technology development: deliberately accelerating safety-enhancing technologies to ensure human flourishing. Not every technology is inevitable – rather, the market fails to incentivise key domains. We work in these areas.
We’ve doubled year on year since our founding in 2023, and we aim to do so again in 2026. That means we’re actively hiring across electronics, FPGA, mechanical, firmware, software, physics, HPC infrastructure, and DevOps — plus exceptional talent in any discipline.
About You
We value drive, culture fit, and a track-record of engineering excellence and above all else, but the below competencies, interests, and attributes are extremely desirable:
- Strong background in electronic design - component selection, schematic design, PCB layout, and component procurement
- Experience with hand THT and SMD PCB assembly and modifications
- Circuit inspection and debugging using oscilloscopes and logic analysers
- 5+ years experience post-qualification, experience in senior engineering roles
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.
Alongside the above, the below competencies will strengthen an application:
- Producing embedded firmware (C/C++)
- Familiarity with mechanical design
- SPICE and/or RF simulation experience
- Experience balancing functional electronic design requirements with additional constraints (such as thermal, mechanical, and power requirements etc.)
- An eye for beautiful and practically achievable design
What is it like to work at Amodo?
Our values: Truth-seeking, excellent, enthusiastic, kind, humble, and always learning
Our approach: We think before diving in, iterate fast, and focus on the highest-impact 80/20 work. We favour rapid experimentation, quick feedback loops, and sprinting to “something that works” rather than over-planning.
Feedback culture: We practice radical candor, which means being clear and direct while staying kind, and welcoming feedback at every level
No “not my job”-ism: If we see something wrong, we fix it. If your part of a project is going great and another is struggling, don’t settle for polishing a chunk of a struggling ship
