Forward Deployed Engineer

<div> <p><strong>Location</strong>: London</p> <p><strong>Office requirement </strong>: 2 days in the office - Significant travel required</p> <p><strong>Employment type</strong>: Permanent &nbsp;</p> <strong>Seniority level</strong>: Principal</div> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>At GWI we’re always looking for extraordinary people who thrive on making an extraordinary impact. Right now we’re looking for an <strong>Forward Deployed Engineer</strong>&nbsp;to play a key role in our <strong>Solutions Consultants Team</strong> in London. If that’s you, and making a difference gets you out of bed in the morning, keep reading. It could be the start of something, well, extraordinary.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h1>Sounds great, what will I be doing? 🤔</h1> <p>As our Lead / Principal Forward Deployed Engineer you'll be embedded directly with our most strategic accounts, owning the end-to-end technical deployment of our agentic AI platform. This isn't a support role, and it isn't a solutions consultant with a fancy title — you'll write production code, own technical outcomes, and be the reason our biggest customers succeed and expand. You'll operate with the autonomy of a founding engineer and the commercial instinct of a GTM leader.<br><br></p> <div> <p>A few things you'll be responsible for:</p> <p>👉 Embed with our Tier 1 enterprise accounts and own end-to-end deployments of our agentic AI platform — from discovery through to production, including bespoke integrations, data pipelines, and workflow automations.</p> <p>👉 Lead AI agents into production in complex environments (legacy systems, security, compliance), turning cutting-edge capability into measurable business outcomes.</p> <p>👉 Partner with Enterprise AEs in late-stage sales cycles — leading proof-of-concept builds and assessing technical readiness to de-risk and accelerate the close.</p> <p>👉 Surface patterns from the field and feed them back to product and engineering, acting as the bridge between customer reality and roadmap.</p> <p>👉 Build out the FDE practice as it scales: repeatable deployment playbooks, success metrics, and mentoring mid-level FDEs.</p> <p>It's also fun; shaking things up is what working for GWI is all about. You'll need to be flexible, comfortable with continuous change, and working in a high-tempo environment.</p> </div> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h1>What do I need to bring with me? 🧳</h1> <p>You’ll need to be able to demonstrate the core skills this role requires. You don't have to tick all the boxes right away; the important thing is that you’re willing to learn. <br>Here’s what the team will be looking for in you:</p> &l
