- Lead the design, maintenance, and modernisation of our core software architecture alongside your peers and the Product Line Engineering Manager.
- Mentor and coach Software Development Engineers across teams, setting standards and best practices (including through our Community of Practice).
- Drive the full lifecycle of major projects from feature design with key stakeholders to final implementation and deployment.
- Leverage your deep expertise in C# to tackle complex, performance-critical tasks like data acquisition and real-time data decoding.
- Benefit from dedicated "blue sky" time for professional development, technology investigations, and exploring new feature feasibility.
- Ensure all code meets the highest quality, company, and regulatory standards, actively engaging with the full SDLC (Code Review, Unit/Integration Testing, Root Cause Analysis).
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.
