C++ Software Engineer
Have you ever wondered how a mission critical system that is used by more than 125 airlines to check in 800 million passengers each year is made ultra-resilient to failures? We are looking for an enthusiastic C++ Software Engineer to work on our world leading airline passenger servicing system based at our London Heathrow development centre.
About The Team And The Role
You will join an established team that is developing and maintaining the software to allow airlines to continue operating even after catastrophic system failures.
Within Amadeus, the Active/Standby team works closely with teams across multiple sites (London, Nice, Bangalore, Sydney, Erding), applications and groups (R&D, Global Operations). As a Software Development Engineer, you will be accountable for the technical design, development and delivery of the product functionalities based on the solutions agreed with stakeholders.
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.
