Senior Full Stack Engineer | AI / FinTech | £150k + Equity
Most personal finance products are very good at telling you where your money went.
What if one could tell you what to do next?
I'm working with an early-stage AI FinTech that has recently closed its pre-seed round and is building an AI-powered financial co-pilot.
They're now looking for one of their first senior engineering hires.
This isn't a role where you'll inherit a mature platform, a backlog and six layers of approval. You'll be Engineer #1/#2, working directly with the founders to turn an early product into something people genuinely trust with their financial decisions.
You'll be responsible for things like:
- Building across the full stack, including React Native on the frontend
- Making early architectural and technology decisions
- Working with financial data, account aggregation and open banking integrations
- Building the AI layer that turns financial information into useful actions
- Helping shape the product, rather than simply being handed tickets
- Setting technical standards that future engineering hires will build on
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.

Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Why you're a good match
You’ve got the grades and the economics background, and your bank internship is exactly the experience this scheme looks for. Apply soon — deadlines close within the month.
Experience fit
Your summer at the bank plus your econometrics coursework map directly to the day-one responsibilities on this scheme — client modelling, market briefings, and deal support.
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.
They're deliberately keeping the technical requirements broad.
What matters more is that you're a very strong full-stack engineer who has built products in demanding environments and is comfortable operating with ambiguity.
Experience within a recognised technology company, high-growth startup or FinTech would be particularly interesting. Exposure to AI/LLMs, financial data or open banking would be a bonus.

You'll need the appetite for early-stage life too. There's no legacy codebase holding you back, but equally, there's nowhere to hide when something needs figuring out.

Engineer #1/#2
If you're a senior engineer who likes the idea of getting in early enough to genuinely influence what gets built and how it gets built, drop me a message.
Equally, if someone immediately came to mind while reading this, I'd appreciate an introduction.
