The role

Principal Forward Deployed Engineer | Active DV | London | £800 p/d Outside IR35

I'm looking for a senior, hands-on engineer with real defence delivery experience to build AI capability from scratch and see it all the way through to the customer.

What you'll do

  • Taking new products from a blank page to live, and owning them the whole way
  • Getting a cloud-native product running wherever the customer needs it: on-prem, OpenShift, Kubernetes, VMs or bare metal
  • Delivering AI and LLM capability, including GPU workloads and models served on-prem
  • Shipping into secure and air-gapped networks through controlled release processes
  • Leading the security side: threat modelling, building the evidence and getting systems accredited
  • Writing the docs and test plans, and being the go-to technical person for senior stakeholders

Tech you'll use

TypeScript, Node.js, Fastify, Next.js and React, with Prisma and PostgreSQL, on GCP (Cloud Run, Cloud Tasks), plus solid security and IAM experience.
