Job Title: Senior System Engineer – Electronic Products
Location: Southampton
Salary: £50,000 to £60,000 basic + benefits
Our client is looking for a talented Senior System Engineer – Electronic Products with a strong background in the Electronic OEM sector to join their growing R&D team.
You’ll be an experienced Systems Engineer with a strong background in electronic product development. You’ll be technical enough to do the requirements capture and product definition for new electronic products, but only to a normal system engineering level.

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.
