If you’re competent with Git, Azure DevOps Pipelines, have a solid understanding of Azure integration services and experience testing integration solutions, then this could be the opportunity for you! We’re looking for a Test Automation and Release Engineer, competent with JavaScript, C# and .NET to design, build, and maintain automated test suites that validate our integration solutions, maximising test coverage for the most critical data flows and processes across our enterprise systems landscape.
With a particular focus on Azure integration services such as Function Apps, and Service Bus, you’ll create and manage automation environments for both unit testing of individual integration components and System Integration Testing (SIT) of end-to-end integration flows. Using appropriate automation tools and frameworks to design, test, and deploy effective test automation solutions, you’ll automate as much of the testing effort as possible with a minimum set of code, ensuring that integration solutions are reliable, resilient, and performant before they reach production. You’ll also manage releases between environments, supporting the safe and seamless delivery of integration changes.
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.
