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.
You'll be working closely with the trading desk on technology supporting pricing, trading, hedging, risk management and trading algorithms.
This is a senior position and we're particularly interested in speaking with KDB+/q specialists rather than generalist developers who have only used KDB as one part of a broader technology stack. Candidates can be based anywhere in the UK, provided they can commit to being onsite in London 3 days per week.
