About the Role

A rapidly growing technology business is developing assurance and safety capabilities for next-generation autonomous systems and is expanding its specialist engineering team. We work across verification, embedded software, autonomy, aerospace, and safety-critical engineering, developing technology that gives confidence in autonomous systems operating in highly regulated environments.

The Role

As a Safety Critical Verification Engineer, you will contribute to the verification and validation of embedded safety-critical systems supporting autonomous platforms. You will work across:

  • Safety-critical software verification and validation
  • Runtime assurance and safety monitoring
  • Certification and design assurance activities

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and execute verification activities for safety-critical embedded software
  • Support verification of high integrity software and autonomous system safety functions
  • Work with engineering and certification teams to support compliance with applicable safety standards

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.
