Job Title: Forward Deployed Engineer

Salary: £120k

Company Description: Deducta - Fast-growing AI data intelligence startup

Job Description:
Join an elite team of Rhodes Scholars and ex-MBB consultants at Deducta, an AI-powered platform transforming how global enterprises manage complex spend data. As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you will bridge the gap between high-level strategy and technical execution, embedding with C-suite stakeholders to deploy agentic AI solutions that deliver measurable business outcomes.

Location: London, UK

Why this role is remarkable:

  • Work directly with a high-calibre founding team including Rhodes Scholars and former Bain consultants at a well-funded, early-stage startup.

  • Transition from slide-making to true ownership by managing enterprise-scale AI deployments end-to-end for household-name global clients.

  • Enjoy a high-autonomy environment where your consulting toolkit and technical rigour directly shape the product trajectory and company culture.

What you will do:

  • Lead enterprise data transformation projects, from aligning C-suite and VP-level stakeholders to resolving front-line technical deployment blockers.

  • Partner with the commercial team to drive pre-sales engagements, demonstrating product value and structuring complex technical deals.

  • Map mission-critical business challenges and deploy Deducta's agentic AI platform to cleanse, classify, and standardise fragmented global spend data.

The ideal candidate:

  • 2+ years of experience at a top-tier consulting firm (MBB or equivalent) with a proven track record of managing senior client relationships.

  • Strong quantitative foundation with a degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, or Engineering, or equivalent experience in analytical fields like IB or PE.

  • High-agency operator who thrives in ambiguous environments and demonstrates "unreasonable hospitality" toward clients and teammates alike.

We never post fake jobs
This isn't a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network.
Sometimes Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description.
We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it.
Give Jack a spin! You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.
