ABOUT THE ROLE
Cirata Symphony is an intelligent data orchestration platform that moves petabytes of data across on-premises, cloud, and multi-cloud environments — continuously, securely, and without disruption. We work with regulated enterprises in financial services, telecoms, and automotive who cannot afford downtime or data loss.
As an Engineer on the Symphony team, you will contribute to the core services that power real-time data movement, replication, and orchestration. You will work alongside experienced engineers building reliable, high-throughput systems that customers trust with their most critical data.
We are an AI-forward team. We actively embrace AI-assisted development — from coding assistants and AI-powered code review to MCP-connected tooling that integrates directly into customer workflows. We don’t block these tools; we build with them. If you’re curious about how AI can make you a more effective engineer, you’ll fit right in.
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.
