Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What You Will Do
- Build and ship product end-to-end across the full stack, including frontend, backend, and critical infrastructure components.
- Design and implement the AI agent layer that automates submission intake, data extraction, and insurer outreach for global insurance brokers.
- Collaborate directly with the founders to identify product opportunities, make key architectural decisions, and rapidly iterate on the live beta.
The ideal candidate
- Has 3 to 8 years of overall work experience, ideally within early-stage startups or resource-constrained environments where you've built real products.
- Demonstrates a strong ship mentality and the ability to figure out complex technical problems from scratch without needing a detailed spec.
- Possesses a full-stack engineering skillset and is excited about building the infrastructure for a massive, traditional market ripe for AI disruption.

We never post fake jobs
This isn't a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network.
Sometimes Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description.
We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it.
Give Jack a spin! You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.
