💵 £90,000-£110,000 + equity
💻 Go, Rust, AWS/Serverless, Kubernetes, AI Integrations
📈 Venture backed, recently funded scale up
⚙️ High scale, ultra low latency infrastructure with genuine architectural influence
We're partnered with a venture backed scale up operating at the cutting edge of 3D and AR advertising. They build high scale, ultra low latency infrastructure to support global brands.
They're now hiring a Senior Backend Developer to join a brand new engineering team, to lead the architectural shift from an expensive Docker on Kubernetes setups toward a serverless, event driven model. This is a high impact role for someone who wants real architectural input, not just delivery. You'll design, build and maintain low latency, high throughput backend services in GO/Golang and work with an existing Rust codebase.
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.
You'll report directly to the CTO and have the space to offer key architectural insight on serverless migration, integrate cutting edge AI models into the product suite, and AI in the developer workflow. It's best suited to someone who thrives working independently and as part of a small team.
