Forward Deployed Software Engineer
Defence AI | UK
Software Engineers - want to build technology that actually gets used in the real world?
I'm partnering with a well-funded, VC-backed Defence AI start-up developing advanced AI-powered systems to solve some of the most challenging problems in real-world operational environments.
What makes this interesting?
→ Building and deploying advanced software and AI-powered systems in demanding real-world environments.
→ Working directly with end users to understand complex challenges and turn them into practical engineering solutions.
→ Writing production-quality Python and solving difficult problems across the software stack.
→ Integrating AI capabilities into existing infrastructure, systems and operational workflows.
→ Owning engineering challenges end-to-end, from understanding requirements through to deployment.
→ Working alongside talented software engineers and AI researchers to turn cutting-edge technology into something that works in practice.
Who would be a good fit?
You could be a Software Engineer, Backend Engineer, Systems Engineer or Platform Engineer who enjoys solving difficult technical problems and wants to work closer to where their technology is deployed.
You don't need to have worked as a Forward Deployed Engineer before.
What matters is that you're a strong hands-on engineer who can write great code, navigate complex systems, communicate with different stakeholders and find solutions when the problem isn't clearly defined.
Experience with Python, backend engineering, distributed systems, infrastructure or systems integration would be particularly relevant.
The opportunity?
Join an ambitious, well-funded AI company at an early stage, work on genuinely challenging engineering problems and take ownership of getting advanced technology out of development and into real-world use.
This is for engineers who want technical depth, real ownership and a direct connection between the code they write and the problems it solves.
