Job Description

A forward-deployed pre-sales engineer who partners with the strategy and sales teams to design, build, and present AI-powered proof of concepts for clients. You will own the full technical arc of each POC — from brief to build to client demo — and establish a reusable, scalable framework that compounds in value with every engagement.

Job Responsibility

  • Build proof of concepts that win clients
  • Own the client-facing technical narrative
  • Create a scalable, reusable POC framework
  • Stay at the frontier of AI and shape our offering
  • Be a reliable, autonomous operator

Requirements

  • Senior or lead-level engineering experience, with a proven track record of shipping production-quality work independently
  • Full-stack capability: strong React / TypeScript frontend fundamentals with solid backend experience (language is not a constraint)
  • Practical, hands-on knowledge of AI application development: LLMs, RAG architectures, AI agents, and evaluation approaches
  • Excellent client-facing communication skills — comfortable in a room with VP-level stakeholders, able to translate technical depth into commercial clarity
  • A 50/50 builder-communicator profile: no trade-off between engineering quality and presentation quality
  • Demonstrable ability to ship fast and make pragmatic architectural decisions under time pressure
  • Comfortable working solo, managing time independently, and operating with minimal direction

Nice to have

  • Previous founder experience, or a background operating as a one-person engineering function
  • Experience in a product studio, agency, or consultancy working across multiple clients and problem domains
  • Familiarity with a broad range of AI tooling, model providers, and deployment approaches
  • Experience building and presenting technical demos to non-technical enterprise audiences
  • Contribution to sales processes, technical proposals, or RFP responses

What we offer

  • 32 days’ holiday (including bank holidays)
  • 8-weeks working-away allowance each year
  • Birthday off
  • Health and wellbeing budget including Vitality private healthcare and WellHub unlimited gym access and wellbeing apps
  • Cycle-to-work scheme and quarterly team socials
  • Quarterly OKRs and bonus opportunities, with monthly check-ins to support your growth
