  • Develop, execute, and maintain optical test methods and procedures to verify product performance against specification
  • Provide hands‑on test support to NPI and production, including fault finding, root cause analysis, and corrective action
  • Own and improve optical test equipment, including calibration, reliability, and obsolescence management
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives such as test time reduction, process robustness, and yield improvement
  • Interface proactively with Operations to identify and mitigate test‑related risks
  • Generate and maintain technical documentation, test reports, and compliance evidence

  • Support and mentor junior engineers and technicians within the test function

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.
