Senior Forward Deployed Engineer - London
Up to £90 -110k + bonus
Hybrid working - Central London
I’m working with one of the UK’s leading wealth management platforms. They’re now investing heavily in AI and building a brand-new AI Deployment function to turn the company’s AI strategy into real production capability. This is one of the first senior hires into the team, giving you the opportunity to help shape how AI is deployed across the business from the ground up.
Key responsibilities:
- Own AI engagements end-to-end, from identifying the problem through to production and handover
- Build production-grade AI solutions, including LLMs, pipelines, agents and workflows
- Develop and implement evals, guardrails, monitoring and cost/accuracy optimisation
- Deploy ML and AI components into live customer-facing environments
- Work closely with Data Science, Decisioning, Engineering and non-technical 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.
Experience required:
- 5+ years’ software engineering experience with meaningful production ownership
- Strong production-grade Python
- Proven experience building and shipping LLM-powered systems into production
- Hands-on experience with LLM APIs, agents, orchestration, tool use, structured outputs and RAG
- Strong understanding of LLM evaluation, regression testing and quality measurement
- Experience implementing AI safety and guardrails, including PII, prompt injection and human-in-the-loop approaches
- CI/CD, containerisation, monitoring and alerting for AI workloads
- Strong data processing and pipeline fundamentals
