This company is reinventing how businesses make their biggest decisions.
They're starting by building the best AI add-in for complex financial modelling in Excel. Financial models underpin every critical business decision, yet the tooling for this form of programming is fundamentally broken. This is a chance to fix it. The long-term vision is an AI operating system for the entire strategic decision lifecycle, a new category with a massive market opportunity. The engineering team is small, but comprises top-tier talent from leading institutions.
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.
You will join a small, high-calibre engineering team.
This isn't a role for 'vibe coders'; you'll own features end-to-end, from Rust services to backend and frontend, with a mandate to ship high-quality code at speed using the latest AI tools. Expect deep technical problems, not just feature implementation. This role is 5 days a week in person in Hoxton, London.
The work
- Ship high-quality code at speed, leveraging the latest AI tools and models. This isn't optional.
- Own features end-to-end: from Rust services to backend logic and frontend implementation.
- Optimize for performance: eliminate allocations, tune queries, implement aggressive caching.
- Enhance our AI agent's intelligence by refining its harness, tools, and context optimization.
- Drive improvements across backend and infrastructure, from low-level bug fixes to CI optimization.
What You Bring
- Demonstrable track record as a top-tier engineer.
- Expertise in leveraging AI for coding, including advanced prompting and familiarity with various models (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor).
- Experience owning features end-to-end across the stack (Rust, TypeScript, React, backend, frontend).
- A deep understanding of performance optimization and infrastructure.
- Ability to work 5 days a week in our Hoxton, London office.
