π Forward Deployed Engineer - UK(Remote) - $120M Funded AI Infra Startup
We're growing the EMEA FDE team from 1 β 2. Early enough that you actually shape how this goes, not just inherit someone else's playbook.
The company:
- π° Just closed a $100M Series A
- π 1M+ developers building on their platform
- β‘ 20B+ inference requests processed to date
- πΊπΈ πͺπΊ US, EMEA & APAC teams are running
The job, honestly:
- You show up after the client's already sold. Your work starts where the sales conversation ends.
- π§© Sit with clients, figure out what they're actually trying to build
- β‘ Get something working in front of them fast - not "on the roadmap," now
- π§ If the platform can't quite do it yet, you build the workaround yourself
- π‘ Take what you learn back to engineering - not a complaint, intel
Reasons to use Rodeo
Iβm in my final year doing Economics and I donβt know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer β it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) donβt need a masters. Letβs look at the ones youβd be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet β that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
