Forward Deployed Engineer – Agentic AI - UK / Europe | Remote + Customer Travel
I’m working with a well-funded, high-growth AI company that is building a new generation of intelligent automation for complex enterprise operations.
They’re now looking for an experienced Forward Deployed Engineer to join the team across the UK/Europe.
This isn’t a traditional software engineering role, and it isn’t AI consulting where you deliver a strategy deck and walk away.
You’ll be embedded with enterprise customers, getting underneath how their businesses actually operate and then building and deploying AI agents that solve those problems in production.
What you'll be doing
- You’ll own deployments from initial discovery through to production and expansion.
- Working directly with customers to understand workflows across systems, spreadsheets, inboxes and operational teams; identifying what should be automated, and what needs redesigned first, then turning those processes into working agentic solutions.
- Building integrations and prototypes, configuring agents, working with APIs and enterprise systems, troubleshooting live deployments and iterating until you’re delivering measurable results.
- Crucially, you'll also own the customer relationship. You need to be equally comfortable writing Python as you are sitting in a room with senior customer stakeholders.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
We're looking for
-
5+ years' experience delivering technology into real customer environments, ideally from backgrounds such as:
- Forward Deployed Engineering
- Applied AI / ML Engineering
- AI Solutions Engineering
- Technical AI / automation consulting
- AI-native startups
-
You'll ideally have hands-on experience across technologies including:
- Python
- JavaScript/TypeScript
- SQL
- APIs
- LLMs
- Agent Frameworks
- MCP
- RAG/Retrieval
- Prompt Engineering
- Webhooks
-
Experience within retail, e-commerce, FMCG/CPG, supply chain, procurement, merchandising or other operationally complex environments would be particularly interesting.
The person
We're looking for someone who enjoys ambiguity.
- Someone who can walk into a complicated customer environment, quickly understand how the business works, challenge processes that don't make sense and then build something that actually works.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
- You’ll need a strong bias towards shipping, excellent customer instincts and the confidence to take genuine ownership of an outcome.
Why consider it?
-
The company has raised significant institutional funding, already has major enterprise customers using its technology in production and remains early enough that joining now means genuine influence over how the business develops.
-
You'll work closely with the founders, product and engineering teams, with customer insight feeding directly back into the product.
UK / Europe – Remote
- Regular European customer travel
- Highly competitive package + meaningful equity
