Software Engineer / Developer (Java API Kafka AWS) London / WFH

Are you a technologist with strong Java backend development skills?

You could be progressing your career working on a financial Tech for Good product in a hands-on Software Engineer role at a scale-up software house.

The platform enables easier money transfer to people in emerging economies, disaster and war zones that do not have access to a bank account; enabling relatives, charities, the UN and UNICEF to get money to remote communities where it is needed most using sophisticated technology.

As a Software Engineer you will collaborate in defining, building, iterating and testing core products including building new features on the payment platform, gateway API and web portal.

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.
