They are now looking for a Technical Lead to take a key role in the design and delivery of a modern, cloud-native platform. This is a genuine opportunity to influence architecture, engineering standards and technical direction from an early stage, while remaining hands-on with the code.
You’ll lead delivery across mobile, backend and web, with React Native forming an important part of the customer-facing product.

- React Native / Expo
- TypeScript
- AWS, including ECS and Lambda
- RDS and ElastiCache
- AWS CDK
- GitHub and modern CI/CD
- Automated testing, observability and monitoring
- AI-assisted development tooling
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.
What you’ll be doing
- Leading the architecture and development of a new scalable platform
- Remaining hands-on with TypeScript and AWS
- Taking technical ownership of React Native applications across iOS and Android

- Establishing strong engineering, testing and deployment practices
- Owning mobile release processes and app-store delivery
- Mentoring engineers and helping build a high-performing development team
- Working closely with product and business stakeholders to turn commercial objectives into technical solutions
What we’re looking for
You’ll ideally already be working as a Technical Lead, Lead Engineer or experienced Senior Engineer and have strong commercial experience across:
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
- TypeScript
- AWS
- React Native applications running in production
- Modern cloud architecture
- CI/CD and automated testing
- Infrastructure as Code, ideally AWS CDK
- API and third-party integrations
Experience with Expo, mobile release engineering, payment integrations, offline mobile applications or health / fitness technology would be particularly useful.
This would suit someone who enjoys the combination of technical leadership and hands-on engineering, and wants considerably more influence than they might have within an established engineering environment.
