Senior API / Cloud-Native Engineer | AWS, EKS & MCP
Hybrid - London
Contract - Long Term
An organisation in financial services is building a new way for its members to access collateral and trade-volume data.
This proof of concept will move beyond static reports towards secure APIs and conversational access through Model Context Protocol (MCP). You’ll help shape the first implementation and establish patterns that can be reused as the platform grows.
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.
