Forward Deployed Engineer (Applied AI / LLM Agents)

Accountabilities You will take ownership of customer-facing technical projects, combining business understanding, hands-on engineering, and continuous collaboration with internal product teams to deliver reliable AI-powered solutions.

• Lead technical discovery sessions with customers, mapping their workflows, data, systems, and stakeholders to translate business needs into clear technical requirements.

• Design, develop, and deploy LLM-based agents and workflows, taking solutions from early prototypes to production-ready implementations.

• Integrate AI solutions with existing customer tools, databases, and business software through REST APIs, webhooks, and third-party platforms.

• Develop reusable integration approaches and technical components that can be standardised across different customer environments.

• Establish evaluation frameworks and success metrics to measure solution performance, reliability, and business impact.

• Monitor and optimise deployed solutions, focusing on quality, operational costs, and latency.

• Communicate project progress, technical findings, results, and recommendations to both technical and business stakeholders.

• Share customer insights and implementation feedback with the product team to help shape the technical roadmap.

• Travel occasionally to the United States when required.

Requirements :

The ideal candidate combines strong software engineering fundamentals with practical experience deploying LLM-powered applications in production. You should be comfortable working directly with customers, navigating ambiguity, and taking ownership of projects from initial discovery through implementation.

• 5+ years of experience as a software engineer, full-stack engineer, or applied AI engineer, ideally in a customer-facing, founding, or product-oriented role.

• Demonstrated experience building and deploying production-grade LLM systems, including Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), AI agents, prompt engineering, and evaluation frameworks.

• Strong programming skills in Python and/or TypeScript, alongside solid SQL and database knowledge.

• Hands-on experience integrating systems through REST APIs, webhooks, and third-party platforms.

• Strong ownership mindset, with the ability to work independently, manage ambiguity, prioritise effectively, and drive projects through to completion.

• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly to different audiences.

• English proficiency at C1 level or above.

Additional experience that would be an advantage:

• Previous experience as a co-founder, founding engineer, or technical lead, with responsibility for both product and technology decisions.

• A background in machine learning or data engineering combined with practical product development experience.

• Hands-on familiarity with AI agent frameworks such as LangGraph, Model Context Protocol (MCP), or similar technologies.

• Experience working with cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

• Experience in product-led technology companies, ranging from established technology organisations to startups.

• Previous experience implementing enterprise platforms such as ERP or CRM systems within customer environments.

Benefits :

• Competitive annual gross salary: €35,000–€55,000 for candidates with 5–6 years of experience, and €50,000–€70,000 for candidates with more than 6 years of experience.

• Fully remote working: Work remotely with the flexibility and autonomy to organise your own schedule.

• High-impact responsibilities: Contribute directly to the development and deployment of production-grade AI products.

• Ownership and autonomy: Take responsibility for technical projects and influence how AI solutions are implemented across customer environments.

• Collaborative environment: Join a small, experienced team working at the forefront of applied AI and LLM technologies.

• Direct leadership exposure: Work closely with the leadership team and contribute to important technical and product decisions.
