About the Role

Join a customer-facing engineering team building AI software for enterprise organizations. You will work directly with customers to understand complex operational challenges, then design and ship practical software solutions that make a measurable difference.

What You'll Do

  • Visit customer sites in the UK and internationally for up to 50% of your time to understand operational problems firsthand.

  • Design, prototype, and ship production software quickly across customer environments and technology stacks.

  • Partner with other forward deployed engineers and software engineers during customer engagements and pilots.

  • Share customer insights and product feedback with the core engineering team to inform product development.

  • Prepare and deliver software demonstrations and pilots for prospective customers in manufacturing, automotive, retail, and financial services.

What We're Looking For

  • One to five years of experience as a customer-facing full-stack software engineer or forward deployed engineer, including at least one year building and shipping production code.

  • Experience with React, TypeScript, Python, LangChain, and Vercel AI SDK, alongside familiarity with Rust, SQL, REST APIs, cloud infrastructure, enterprise data systems, and AI or LLM tools.

  • Strong systems design and architecture skills, with the ability to turn customer problems into scalable technical solutions.

  • A problem-first approach, comfort with ambiguity, and the ability to adapt across customer industries and technical environments.

  • A degree in computer science, engineering, or another STEM field, with strong technical fundamentals.

  • Startup, founding, or early-stage engineering experience is valuable; experience in forward deployed engineering or similar customer-facing roles is also relevant.

  • Based in the UK and able to travel nationally and internationally up to 50% of the time.

  • Authorized to work without visa sponsorship.
