Build and deploy end-to-end software solutions by collaborating directly with customers to translate complex real-world workflows into intuitive software.

About the company

  • We’re looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer who thinks in customer workflows, not tickets or isolated features. This is a role for someone who wants to sit with users, decide what should exist, build it end-to-end, and put it in their hands.
  • You will fit right in if you have experience with:
  • Customer Embedding — Work directly with customers to understand their real workflows
  • Product Engineering — Design and build end-to-end user workflows, from UI to backend logic and data
  • Domain Translation — Translate messy real-world processes into clear, intuitive software
  • Frontend — Build production-grade UI using modern frontend frameworks (React, TypeScript)
  • Backend — Implement APIs, business logic, and data models that support complex workflows
  • AI Integration — Design and integrate AI-powered features (LLMs, agents, model-backed APIs) into customer workflows
  • Product Judgment — Be opinionated about what to build, what not to build, and when to ship
  • Ownership — Build fast and ship production-grade systems with high ownership
  • WHAT YOU WILL DO
  • Ship from Day 1 — Deploy to production immediately and own real product surface area
  • Own it end-to-end — Run customer calls, write the spec, build it, and ship it
  • Solve real problems — From UX polish to backend logic to jumping on customer calls

Responsibilities

  • We’re removing one of the last great barriers to progress in the physical world. While software moves fast, industries like aerospace, healthcare, and energy are still slowed by outdated, manual systems.
  • We are on track to raise our Series A, backed by a 14× oversubscribed $4.5m seed round from Tier-1 VCs such as Coinbase, Reddit, Klarna, and Spotify. Our world-class team includes former unicorn founding engineers and talent from X, Google, Amazon, and Yandex. We value people who want to win and thrive in high-ownership environments.
  • We’re building the system that lets complex, real-world work move at software speed.

Requirements

  • Strong experience with TypeScript and modern frontend frameworks (React or equivalent)
  • Comfortable building backend services in Python
  • Experience integrating AI systems (LLMs, agents, model-backed APIs) into production products
  • Ability to reason about complex workflows, not just CRUD
  • Comfort talking directly with customers, including non-technical domain experts
  • Strong plus if you have:
  • Founder or ex-founder experience
  • Early-stage or stealth startup background
  • Founder fellowships or similar environments (EF, YC, Antler, etc.)
  • Experience as a forward-deployed / solutions engineer (Palantir, Ramp, Scale, etc.)
  • Experience building AI-powered products in production
  • Experience working where requirements were unclear and evolving

Conditions

  • Pace and purpose — In-person in London (visa sponsorship available)
  • No friction — Relocation, visas, meals, and tools fully covered
  • A tight-knit team — High standards, high trust, no politics

Other

  • Ship to production from day one
  • Own problems end-to-end, from definition to deployment
  • Do what needs doing, including UX polish, debugging, and customer interaction
