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’ll Do
- Drive automation testing within an Agile delivery team, maintaining an approximate 70:30 split between automated and manual testing.
- Design, build, and maintain robust test automation frameworks using C# /.NET and BDD tools like SpecFlow or Reqnroll.
- Create fixtures (step definitions) and write clear, maintainable Gherkin scenarios.
- Test event-driven architectures leveraging messaging brokers (RabbitMQ, Kafka, or similar) along with complex data flows and SQL databases.
- Integrate automated packs into continuous delivery pipelines using ALM tools such as Azure DevOps.
- Articulate testing outcomes and business value clearly to stakeholders, while mentoring junior team members.

🎯 What We're Looking For

- Experience Level: 3+ years of experience in test engineering with strong analytical problem-solving skills.
- Domain Background: Experience in Capital Markets, Trading, Commodities, FX, or Financial Services is highly desirable. (Energy trading domain experience is not strictly required!)
- Communication: Ability to clearly articulate the business outcomes and value of your testing (e.g., time saved, reliability gained), not just the technical steps.
