Software Engineer – Java, Spring Boot & AWS
Contract: 6-month contract
Hourly Rate: £75p/h (Inside of IR35)
Location: Manchester (1/2 days per week onsite)
A leading global technology organisation is looking for a hands-on Software Engineer to join a team responsible for migrating services from a single AWS account to a multi-account environment.
The new structure will operate similarly to a cell-based architecture, with individual AWS accounts representing separate business domains. You will primarily focus on developing, testing and supporting Java-based services while contributing to the technical design of the new environment.
This is an excellent opportunity for an engineer who enjoys building reliable production services and solving technical problems directly.
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.
