Forward Deployed Engineer – Applied AI
London/Hybrid (Must be UK based with no visa restrictions)
£80,000 + equity
UK client travel
You’ve built and shipped AI systems. Now you want more ownership: understanding the customer’s problem, making the technical decisions and seeing your work deliver results.
MBN Solutions is partnering with an early-stage AI company transforming how wealth-management firms operate. Its platform brings AI agents into complex, regulated workflows, helping advisers, compliance teams and operations teams work more effectively.
We’re looking for an ambitious, hands-on engineer with strong foundations and the potential to grow into broader responsibility. You may already be an FDE, or you could be an Applied AI Engineer, Machine Learning Engineer or Python engineer ready to work more closely with customers.
What you’ll do
- Work with senior customer stakeholders to turn real business problems into practical AI solutions.
- Build production Python services, agents and data pipelines.
- Train, evaluate and deploy models, with clear measures of quality and reliability.
- Develop systems for document generation, information capture, file reviews and compliance workflows.
- Deploy into customer cloud environments and take ownership of how your systems perform.
- Turn what you learn from deployments into improvements to the core product.
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.
What we’re looking for
- Strong Python skills and experience shipping software into production.
- Hands-on experience training or fine-tuning, evaluating and deploying models—not solely connecting applications to model APIs.
- Practical understanding of retrieval, tool use, multi-step workflows, evaluation and guardrails.
- Cloud experience across Azure, AWS or GCP.
- Clear communication, curiosity and the judgement to work through unfamiliar problems.
- The ambition to take on increasing technical and customer responsibility.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Experience in financial services or another regulated industry would be useful. An existing FDE title isn’t essential: evidence of what you’ve built, how you think and how you learn will matter.
Why consider it?
You’ll gain direct exposure to senior customer leaders, influence an evolving AI product and have room to grow as the business scales. This is an opportunity to build both your engineering depth and your ability to own an engagement from initial problem through to a working production system.
London office presence from time to time with flexibility to work from home in the UK, travel to client sites across the UK, and a competitive salary with meaningful equity.
