We’re building something powerful. Let’s build it together.

We've delivered high-performance embedded computing solutions for four decades across industries including defence, telecoms, and aerospace. We’re proud to be experts in what we do and are looking for more brilliant people to join our team.

The Role

Due to the acceleration of new product releases and a customer need to keep existing products in the market for longer durations, the company requires an additional Sustaining Hardware Engineer. As we strive to stay at the leading edge, you will have a voice in how we evolve the hardware and people development processes and methodologies. A team player you will work collaboratively with other functions and provide candid feedback to help us.

What Will I be doing?

  • You will be involved with component obsolescence, customer support and the development of re-spins of our legacy products, using the latest components on the market to extend product lifecycle.
  • You will also be involved in:
    • Re-designs of our legacy product identifying requirements, through to final verification testing.
    • Creation of schematic and PCB design, ensuring all the original requirements are achieved.
    • Report technical issues and progress.
    • Prepare for, and submit technical work for review on obsolescence management.
    • Ensure the necessary analysis and development activities are identified and performed.
    • Conduct design reviews including schematic and PCB layout.

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.
