Own complex software delivery and modernise a live estate without defaulting to a rewrite.
MoneyPlus is modernising its engineering estate while continuing to deliver high-value product and platform work. As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll own complex features end to end, write production code, surface risk early and help other engineers get stronger through thoughtful review and pairing.
What you’ll be doing
- Turn requirements into clear implementation plans and take complex work through design, build, test and production.
- Contribute production code most days and break large or ambiguous work into smaller, lower-risk increments.
- Improve legacy PHP and Laravel code incrementally in a live system, balancing delivery, risk and maintainability.
- Use code review and pairing to improve both the code and the capability of other engineers.
- Identify assumptions, dependencies, constraints and non-functional concerns during planning and bring considered trade-offs rather than late surprises.
- Step into urgent or ambiguous technical problems when needed, helping restore progress without becoming the default owner for all work.
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
- End-to-end feature ownership: Evidence of personally owning a complex feature from requirement through production, including decomposition, decisions, risks and outcome.
- Legacy modernisation: Evidence of improving legacy code in a live system through incremental, well-tested change rather than defaulting to rewrite.
- Review and mentoring: Evidence that code review, pairing or technical feedback improved another engineer’s work or approach.
- Non-functional judgement: Evidence of reasoning about performance, observability, security and resilience trade-offs; MoneyPlus-specific tooling can be learned.
- Transferable evidence is welcome. Regulated-sector experience is useful but not essential where you can demonstrate comparable ownership, modernisation judgement and non-functional engineering depth.
