About the Role

Due to the nature of the projects, candidates must hold active SC Clearance or be eligible to obtain SC Clearance.
This is an excellent opportunity to join a growing team, work on meaningful and technically interesting projects, and shape the direction of a newly formed engineering function.
Key Responsibilities

- Work collaboratively within agile, cross-functional teams.
- Contribute to architectural decisions and technical design.
- Build scalable, secure, and high-performing applications.
- Participate in code reviews and promote best engineering practices.
- Support deployment, monitoring, and maintenance of applications in production.
- Mentor junior engineers (for mid and senior level roles).
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.
