ROLE OVERVIEW
We're a fast-growing cybersecurity startup looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our fully remote team. You'll design, build, and run the large-scale, high-performance systems behind our product, using Python and AWS serverless technologies. As we grow, you'll have a direct hand in how our platform scales, how reliable it is, and how our engineering team works.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Design, build, and maintain scalable backend services in Python on AWS serverless infrastructure
- Ship quickly without cutting corners, pairing fast iteration with solid testing and clear documentation
- Review code and give thoughtful, constructive feedback that raises the bar for the whole team
- Work closely with engineers, designers, and product leaders to turn ideas into reliable features
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.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Expert-level Python and a track record of building and scaling large production systems
- Hands-on experience with AWS serverless architecture and infrastructure as code (we use AWS CDK)
- Experience with both relational and NoSQL databases (we use PostgreSQL and DynamoDB)
- A self-directed, proactive working style suited to a remote-first environment
- You take ownership of features end to end, from initial concept through to production
- You keep users at the centre of your decisions, caring about how your work affects their experience.
- (Preferred) Experience in a startup or high-growth environment.
WHAT WE OFFER
We take care of our UK team with private medical insurance through Bupa, life assurance for financial peace of mind for your loved ones, and a salary sacrifice pension scheme with a 4% employer contribution.

We use an AI notetaker to record, transcribe, and summarize interviews so your interviewer can stay focused on you rather than on typing. The recording and summary are used only by the hiring team involved in this role, are stored in our applicant tracking system, and are not used to make an automated hiring decision — a person reviews everything. If you'd prefer we don't record, just let us know before the call or tell your interviewer at the start, and we'll turn it off. It won't affect your candidacy.
