About the Role

We’re looking to augment our engineering team to support the build-out of our Finance AI capability.

At this stage, we’re not looking for AI researchers or consultants to define the strategy. We have a clear architectural direction and product roadmap in place. What we need are experienced engineers who can help us execute against that vision.

Requirements

We’re primarily looking for senior cloud-native software engineers with 10+ years’ engineering experience building modern enterprise platforms. The ideal candidates will have strong engineering fundamentals across areas such as:

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.

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.

  • Java and/or Python
  • Cloud-native application development
  • Kubernetes
  • Microservices and APIs
  • Event-driven architecture
  • CI/CD and DevOps practices

Experience integrating AI capabilities into enterprise applications would be highly desirable, including areas such as LLM integration, RAG, AI orchestration, or agent frameworks, but this should complement strong engineering capability rather than replace it.

We’re looking for engineers who are comfortable working as part of an existing product and engineering team, following our technical direction, engineering standards, and delivery approach, while contributing ideas and challenging where appropriate. The emphasis is on building and engineering excellence rather than consulting.
