We are recruiting for our client, an established well-funded Regulatory Consultancy with a difference. What does that mean? Well, they are a group of Machine Learning experts that are developing and using AI models to drive specific Product Regulatory Compliance Frameworks for their clients (large Global Automotive, Engineering, OEM and Electronics Manufacturing firms).

Reporting to the COO, join a fast growing “Forward Deployed Regulatory Engineer” team to act as a thoughtful partner to newly acquired customers. Part consultant, part colleague and part peer, you’ll work alongside them to understand their regulatory processes and identify high-value opportunities to scale their use of the AI Agent. Duties will include;

• Lead onboarding & implementation to turn a signed deal into an engaged, confident user base, setting the foundation for long-term retention & expansion
• Help customers navigate one of the biggest shifts in how regulatory work gets done by— guiding teams (some adopting AI for the first time) through the tangible value it brings to their workflows, across both efficiency and robustness.
• Serve as the critical link between customers and Company, surfacing field signal from the front lines back to product, GTM, and leadership to shape the roadmap.
• Identify reusable patterns across deployments that will help build out the sales playbook, so each engagement makes the next one faster and smoother.
• Spot risks and expansion opportunities early, and act on them, protecting renewals and unlocking growth before anyone asks you to.

You will have a Bachelor’s or advanced degree in a technical field (e.g., engineering advantageous) with deep regulatory or compliance experience, from a product compliance, Testing, Inspection, & Certification (TIC) or homologations team ideally in automotive, mobility, OEM or other highly regulated industries that are launching complex products in diverse markets.

You will sit directly alongside customers, digging into their compliance problems, building and rolling out solutions with them in real time, forging strong relationships, and channelling those insights straight back into how they build, hence you must be extremely customer centric by nature and have the natural interpersonal skills that this role will demand. You should also have knowledge of the AI/automation landscape (e.g. Claude Code).

Our client is mostly interested in candidates who are very excited about working for a Tech business which is market leading in a new and growing field and who are interested in working directly with customers using their own technical background to facilitate their onboarding and success.

Please note, this role requires the first 6 months to be based full time in the Head Office in Lower Manhattan – thereafter a hybrid arrangement can be considered. In addition to a competitive salary, this role will also attract equity participation as well as a good benefits package, including 100% health care, medical, dental, family planning, vision and gym subsidy.
