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.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Define long-term strategy for formal verification expansion and steer the technical roadmap
  • Develop cutting-edge formal verification methodology to cover the whole graphics design, including both datapath and control logic. Scale formal verification to big and critical design for bug-free quality. Expand formal verification adoption to the whole IP development life cycle. Resolve challenging convergence issues through world-class formal verification techniques like induction, reduction, abstraction, etc.
  • Define and drive the best-in-class formal verification infrastructure to improve formal verification productivity. Enable more verification engineers to adopt this advanced verification technology without deep formal verification knowledge
  • Lead the research group for emerging formal verification domains like security, safety, low power, architect-level formal verification, etc. Explore the feasibility of formalizing ISA and memory model for GFXIP design
  • Stay informed of the latest trends and innovations in formal verification. Develop technical relationships with the broader AMD Design community and peers. Drive cross-department innovation and collaboration inside AMD.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

  • In-depth knowledge in formal verification algorithms, engines, and use cases
  • Proven expertise in system Verilog assertion and abstract model development
  • Expert user of formal verification tools from both academy and EDA vendors (JasperGold, VC Formal, Murphi, theorem prover)
  • Proven track record of delivering high-quality verification under tight schedules for modern, large-scale processor design like CPU, GPU, or AI processor. Comprehensive knowledge of computer architecture and graphics pipeline
  • Proven expertise in developing formal verification infrastructure for FPV, DPV, SEV, and other use cases is strongly preferred
