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.

- Design and scale robust systems capable of managing tens of millions in revenue for the various companies Telemachus creates.
- Interface with company builders to identify operational bottlenecks and build automated, AI-native solutions to replace traditional business processes.
- Take full ownership of the software lifecycle, from initial architectural brainstorming to deploying systems that handle critical business functions.
The ideal candidate
- Demonstrates exceptional intellect and drive, potentially evidenced by founding a company, winning Olympiad medals, or succeeding in elite academic paths.
- Possesses the technical ability to design and manage complex systems, particularly those leveraging AI-native tools like LLMs, Cursor, and Claude Code.
- Thrives in an intense, in-person London environment and is willing to work long hours to build something of significant economic importance.

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.
