Description

I'm working with one of the most exciting seed-stage AI companies in London, and they're hiring 5 Forward Deployed Engineers. The opportunity: Every plane, medical device, lift, battery and building has to be tested and certified before it reaches the world, and that entire industry still runs on Word docs, PDFs and email. This team is changing that. A year ago they had one customer. Today they're deployed inside six of the ten largest companies in their sector. What you'll do: • Ship to production in week one, not after a three-month ramp-up • Sit with customers, understand how they really work, then spec and build the solution end-to-end • Own features across the whole stack: frontend, backend, data model and AI • Grow into leadership as the company scales Who they're looking for: • 3–6 years as a software or product engineer, ideally at a high-growth startup • Genuinely full-stack: they care about range, not specific frameworks (stack: TypeScript, Python, React, Node.js, AI/ML) • Comfortable in front of customers and good at turning messy real-world problems into software • Founding-team or early-stage experience is a big plus The details: 📍 On-site in Shoreditch, 5 days a week (1 day remote possible) 💷 £100K–£160K base + real equity 🌍 Visa sponsorship and transfers available ⚡ Fast, four-stage process
