Enso Recruitment and Belfast FDI Partnership
Enso Recruitment are excited to be partnering with a brand new FDI to Belfast. This high-growth B2B SaaS business is a leader in their field and helps businesses make smarter commercial decisions at scale.
As they establish their first Belfast office, they are creating a number of brilliant opportunities for the local tech market.
We are delighted to be supporting their first Belfast hires and helping them build out their initial team of Senior Python Engineers.
The Opportunity
This is a rare opportunity to join a fast-growing, ambitious technology business at the very start of their Belfast journey as one of their first hires on the ground.
You'll take full ownership of the data platform that sits at the heart of their product, working with a small, high-autonomy engineering team where your decisions matter and your impact is felt from day one.
Key Responsibilities
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
