Job Description

We are looking for several Kotlin developers, from experienced seniors to hands-on principal engineers, to join long-term greenfield projects with leading financial institutions in London.

You will be part of small, high-calibre engineering teams delivering strategic rebuilds and modernisation projects, replacing legacy systems with clean, cloud-aligned solutions built on Kotlin and modern engineering practices. These are not maintenance roles - they are about writing great code, solving challenging problems, and shaping architecture from the ground up.

You will be joining teams working on genuinely greenfield, strategic rebuilds with clear scope, autonomy, and modern tech stacks. There is little to no BAU work, and plenty of room to shape architecture, influence direction, and own your contributions end-to-end.

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.
