Forward Deployed Engineer

Location: London, England

As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you will own the technical success and real-world application of the platform across a number of our largest customers.

This is a highly strategic, customer-facing engineering role focused on building, deploying, and iterating on solutions... not support.

You’ll work directly with senior stakeholders (engineering, product, and leadership) to turn ambiguous problems into production-grade systems that influence real decisions.

Why this role:

• Opportunity to join and work with leading engineers from Anthropic, OpenAI, Palantir and Scale AI.
• Highly technical role with direct exposure to real-world outcomes
• Work sits at the intersection of engineering, product, and strategy
• High ownership and autonomy from day one

If you're an Software engineer/Full Stack Engineer who wants to move closer to the problem, the customer, and the decision making itself, this is worth a conversation.

Responsibilities:

• Own the technical relationship for a portfolio of enterprise customers
• Scope and break down ambiguous, high-impact problems into solvable components
• Design and build production-grade systems (APIs, data pipelines, integrations)
• Deploy solutions into real-world workflows that directly influence decision-making
• Act as a trusted advisor to senior engineers, architects, and executives
• Translate customer use cases into actionable product and engineering insights
• Partner closely with Product and Engineering to shape roadmap and capabilities
• Help define and scale how this technology is applied across industries

Requirements:

• Strong software engineering fundamentals (Python, TypeScript, or similar)
• Experience building backend systems, data pipelines, or distributed systems
• Comfortable working with APIs, integrations, and modern infrastructure
• Ability to operate in ambiguous, fast-moving environments with minimal structure
• Strong communication skills across both technical and non-technical audiences
• Experience in customer-facing technical roles (FDE) is beneficial but not required
