About LoyalBe
LoyalBe is a fast-growing Card-Linked-Offer (CLO) network. We connect leading brands with millions of consumers through our network of partners, including major card networks, banks, and fintechs. We offer a smarter, more measurable growth channel by connecting global brands, banks, and consumers in a single, frictionless, pay-for-performance rewards network.
Today we work with top brands such as Just Eat, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, New Balance, Lego, adidas, Vodafone and more. We are seeking ambitious, commercially minded individuals to help us define the future of performance marketing. We are a rare breed in fintech/martech: Profitable, and reinvesting heavily in growth. We have validated the model; now we are scaling the commercial team to capture the market.
Role Overview
We are looking for a passionate Senior Software Engineer to design, develop and deliver exceptional software. The role is full-stack and will require flexibility and a start-up mentality (see Disclaimer below!). You might be working on a new feature for our React dashboard one day, integrating with new bank APIs the next, and writing infrastructure-as-code the following day. If this excites you, you should apply.
You will be one of the early engineers to join us at this level, and depending on your interests, you’ll contribute to various efforts from raising the bar in terms of best practices to the hiring and growth of the engineering team. You’ll join a passionate and innovative team reshaping how brands and consumers connect through payment-linked loyalty. You’ll have autonomy, impact, and the opportunity to help define the direction of a growing scaleup.
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.

Diversity
We believe that being a diverse team will make us a stronger team and we want to hire people who believe the same. Please don't filter yourself out!
Startup Disclaimer
We're a startup, so working with us means you can and will face different challenges than working in larger organisations. Yes, we're a small and fast-moving team which definitely has its advantages but that also means you'll have a lot of responsibility. Servers go down? It's up to us to fix it; there is no dev-ops team. At the same time, we're not Pied Piper building the decentralised web, so we don't expect you to be constantly available to resolve issues. Work/life balance is important!
