The role
AI agents need to learn like humans do: by doing, failing, and trying again. This company builds the interactive, resettable digital environments — from simple websites to complex enterprise applications — where they can. It's a foundational problem for increasingly capable AI systems, backed by significant funding and working with leading AI research organizations.
You'll join a lean platform team, building the core systems that power this learning. This isn't about fine-tuning models; it's about the robust, scalable infrastructure underneath: APIs, backend services, data persistence, and complex data pipelines for capturing experiential data. You'll own meaningful technical problems end-to-end, from initial idea to production, making pragmatic calls in a high-autonomy environment.
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.
The work
- Design and build scalable APIs and backend services for AI simulation and data generation.
- Develop robust data persistence layers and complex pipelines to capture, process, and manage experiential data.
- Own the end-to-end lifecycle of core platform systems, from design through to production deployment and monitoring.
- Collaborate directly with AI and curriculum engineering teams, translating research into production-ready infrastructure.
- Drive improvements in system reliability, testing, and deployment practices across the platform.
What You Bring
- Significant experience building and operating production software systems, demonstrating strong system design and end-to-end ownership.
- Proficiency in at least one typed language (e.g., Go, Java, Kotlin, Rust, C#, C++, Scala, TypeScript) within backend, platform, or data-intensive engineering.
- Hands-on experience with a major cloud platform (AWS, GCP) and modern infrastructure practices (Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform).
- Thrive in environments with evolving requirements, taking initiative to define and drive solutions from ambiguity.
- A pragmatic, low-ego approach to engineering, focused on delivering impact in a fast-moving setting.
