The Business

An established electronics design and manufacturing company in Cheshire with a small, close engineering team. A true end to end process, your work goes from schematic to production under one roof. Customers span a wide range of industries, so no two projects look the same.

The Role

Most projects are hardware and firmware together, sometimes hardware alone, from new designs to PCB re-spins and updates. This role is end to end, each project is different:

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.

Projects run from a couple of weeks to a couple of months. There are experienced engineers, but the call on your project is yours.

It suits a senior engineer who likes owning their work

What you'll need

  • Proven experience designing electronics hardware and writing the embedded firmware that runs on it, taking both from schematic to working product.
  • A track record of owning projects end to end on your own, making the design decisions and finding the answers yourself.
  • Experience working directly with customers to turn loose requirements into a clear specification.
  • Work in a design consultancy or a design and manufacturing business, across several industries rather than one product line.
