Senior Forward Deployed Engineer
Runtime
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:
Just closed a $100M Series A
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
If the platform can't quite do it yet, you build the workaround yourself
Take what you learn back to engineering - not a complaint, intel
What you'll bring:
Python, TypeScript, or Go - 2 of 3, fluently
Docker + Linux you can actually troubleshoot
π€ Real experience with agentic systems, inference, or fine-tuning
οΈ Comfortable dealing directly with customers - you've sat in the room
π§ Curiosity that doesn't quit when the problem's one you've never seen
Why now:
There's already someone building in-region - now it's time to go from 1 person to a real team. You'd be helping shape how this company shows up across the whole timezone.
