Technical leadership in deep-tech robotics - exploring interest, not actively hiring yet
I'm having early conversations on behalf of a profitable, independent, deep-tech robotics company near London that is about to formally define a Technical Lead-level hire.
Nothing is live yet - this is genuine market mapping before a role is built, and I would love to hear from people who might be a fit whether or not the timing works.
The organisation has decades of hardware credibility and is now building out the layer above it - AI, control systems and the software that turns hardware into a real customer solution.
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.
They are not looking for a robotics specialist.
They are looking for someone who can:
- Bridge a hardware platform through to a working, commercial solution,
- Bring your zero-to-one (or pre-zero product/solution engineering dev experience),
- Partner with the product lead and project manager to make the solution happen,
- Hold your own technically with an experienced engineering team, and;
- Make pragmatic calls under real business constraints rather than chase the most interesting engineering problem.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
If any of this resonates - whether you have taken a product from zero to something real inside a startup, or led new product or platform work inside a larger organisation - I would value a conversation.
No pitch, no vacancy details, just understanding what is out there and what would genuinely move someone right now.
Both full-time and part-time/fractional arrangements are being considered, so please do not rule yourself out on that basis alone.
Drop me a message or feel free to send your CV, and I will follow up with you directly.
