About the Role

We are growing rapidly and constantly expanding our global contactless payment ecosystem. To support this momentum, we are looking for a Software Development Engineer in Test to play a crucial role in delivering our key software solutions. Joining a close-knit engineering team, you will not just write tests—you will champion a quality-first mindset from day one.

You will collaborate closely with domain owners to deliver high-quality, clean, and testable code in line with our core strategies. This is an excellent opportunity for a dedicated SDET who is ready to advocate for best practices, build resilient automation frameworks, and ensure our scalable software thrives within a secure cloud infrastructure.

Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and deliver sustainable, scalable, reliable, and well-tested software into a secure cloud infrastructure.
  • Advocate for and implement testing best practices across all disciplines, promoting a quality-driven and testable mindset within the team.
  • Foster a collaborative environment where everyone shares the responsibility for quality and testing from the very outset of a project.
  • Guide the team during planning and refinement sessions to accurately understand and estimate test efforts and identify dependencies.
  • Pair with Software Engineers during development and code review to ensure appropriate test coverage at all levels and avoid any duplication of efforts.
  • Develop and maintain robust tools for integration, regression, load, performance, and security testing, ensuring our automation framework is targeted, efficient, and resilient.
  • Investigate and determine the root cause of complex issues by analyzing logs, databases, and system behavior.

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.
