Forward Deployed Engineer

Company: [Employer hidden — sign up to reveal]

Location: London, UK

Type: Full-time, On-site

About The Role

As a Forward-Deployed Engineer, you'll be the technical architect and strategic partner for [Employer hidden — sign up to reveal]'s most high-value enterprise customers across EMEA. Embedded on-site with a single strategic account, you'll lead AI-powered transformations, advise C-level stakeholders, and translate real-world complexity into product insights that shape [Employer hidden — sign up to reveal]'s roadmap.

This is a foundational role; you won't be following a playbook, you'll be writing one.

What You'll Do

  • Strategic Transformation: Embedded with executive and technical teams to define AI-driven transformation goals, design end-to-end solutions using [Employer hidden — sign up to reveal] and AI, and own the full delivery cycle from discovery through scaled rollout.
  • Cross-Functional Leadership: Act as the technical authority across Sales and CS on strategic accounts. Guide solution positioning, elevate teams' AI literacy, and translate customer patterns into structured product feedback and PRDs.
  • Platform & Implementation: Design sophisticated workflows, configurations, and automations. Prototype custom solutions, including advanced scripting and integrations into the customer's broader tech stack, and ensure measurable adoption.

Your Experience & Skills

  • Background in Solution Architecture, Solution Engineering, or Software Engineering
  • Strong systems thinking and architectural judgment, coding is a plus, not a requirement
  • Fluent in AI concepts and tooling (LLMs, automation, workflows) with a clear view of where the hype ends
  • Direct experience engaging with C-suite and senior enterprise stakeholders across complex, ambiguous environments
  • Proven ability to influence decisions and drive outcomes without formal authority
  • Entrepreneurial mindset, you move fast, think at scale, and build what doesn't yet exist

Why This Role

  • EMEA scope: work with some of Europe's most complex and high-value enterprise accounts
  • High visibility: direct access to executive stakeholders internally and externally
  • Real product influence: your insights shape [Employer hidden — sign up to reveal]'s roadmap from the front line
  • Autonomy: define your own approach and be measured on business outcomes, not activity
