Machine Learning Engineer - Forward Deployed
We’re partnered with a high-growth AI company (approaching Series B) building production-grade virtual agents used by enterprise customers. As adoption has accelerated, they’ve built out specialised deployment teams focused on getting real AI systems live — fast.
What You’ll Do:
- Deploy AI agents into production across enterprise environments
- Integrate with APIs, backend systems, and customer workflows
- Build automation using modern AI tooling (LLMs, orchestration frameworks)
- Work closely with product, platform, and customer teams to deliver solutions
- Iterate quickly based on real-world usage and feedback
- Improve internal tooling and deployment processes as you go
What They’re Looking For:
Core Engineering
- Strong coding skills (Python, TypeScript/JavaScript, or similar)
- Experience shipping and maintaining production systems
- Comfortable with APIs, integrations, and backend services
Mindset
- You care about building things that actually get used
- You’re excited about applying AI in practical settings (not just theory)
- You move quickly, automate where possible, and focus on outcomes
- You’re comfortable in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
Nice to Have
- Experience with LLMs, agents, or AI tooling
- Cloud / modern deployment experience
- Background in solutions engineering or customer-facing technical roles
Why This Role?
- Work on real AI systems in production — not prototypes
- High ownership and direct impact on customers
- Fast-moving team, strong engineering culture
- Exposure to the latest AI tooling without being siloed in research
