Forward Deployed Engineer – Agentic AI / GenAI
We are partnering with a fast-growing Data & AI consultancy entering its next stage of expansion, working with enterprise organisations.
As demand for complex AI transformation programmes continues to grow, they are looking for Forward Deployed Engineers to take ownership of high-impact GenAI and ML implementations across multiple enterprise clients.
The business is looking for someone who has genuinely delivered and led complex AI programmes in production environments, bridging the gap between technical implementation, stakeholder management, and measurable business outcomes.
The Opportunity
This role sits directly at the intersection of AI engineering, consulting, and delivery leadership.
You will work closely with enterprise customers to design, implement, and operationalise Agentic AI and GenAI solutions, acting as both a senior technical leader and trusted client-facing partner.
The environment is fast-moving, technically ambitious, and highly delivery focused.
You’ll join a technically strong team with significant exposure to executive stakeholders and multi-project ownership.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the end-to-end delivery of complex GenAI, Agentic AI, and ML transformation programmes across enterprise environments
- Work directly with customers to understand business challenges and translate them into scalable AI solutions

- Own technical delivery across multiple concurrent projects with high visibility and commercial impact
- Guide clients on AI adoption, operationalisation, and integration into existing workflows and systems
- Collaborate with internal engineering and consulting teams to ensure successful deployment and measurable outcomes

- Strong engineering fundamentals with the ability to remain hands‑on when required
- Experience within consulting, forward deployed engineering, AI delivery, or technical transformation roles is highly advantageous
- Strong communication skills with the ability to influence technical and non-technical audiences
- Ideally worked with one major LLM API: Claude Code, GPT or Cursor etc.
Team & Culture
- The company is intentionally building a team of highly ambitious, entrepreneurial engineers who want more than just delivery ownership.
- People here are encouraged to challenge ideas, suggest new approaches, influence future AI offerings, and help shape how the business evolves as it scales. There is a high degree of autonomy and trust across the organisation, with engineers given the freedom to contribute beyond their immediate projects.
- The culture is collaborative, technically strong, and low-ego. The team is made up of highly capable engineers who enjoy solving difficult problems together while maintaining exceptionally high standards.
