About the role

The role that takes AI from the lab to the field. The Forward Deployed Engineer is one of the fastest-growing roles on the market. A high-caliber engineer, they work alongside the client's teams, understand their business from the inside and deliver, within weeks, AI solutions that change their day-to-day work.

At Diametral, this role embodies our promise: creating AI-native organizations. You join the Applied AI & Data Science engine and combine engineering (code, data, generative AI), product sense and client relationship, drawing on all of our engines.

What you will build

  • Tailor-made AI solutions, from diagnosis to production: agents, automations, integrations with existing systems (ERP, CRM, business tools).
  • Prototypes in a few days, then their industrialization with the client's teams.
  • A fine understanding of critical processes: you observe, you ask, you identify where AI creates value.
  • The link between the field and our teams: you surface needs and evolve our accelerators.
  • The client's trust: you are their go-to technical partner, from team lead to director.

Your tech stack

Python, TypeScript, APIs and integrations, LLMs and agent frameworks, SQL, cloud platforms (Azure, GCP, AWS), automation tools, containers.

Within Diametral

  • You have access to the expertise of our 8 engines and to our accelerators.
  • You contribute to shaping new ways of delivering AI.

What we are looking for

What you bring

  • An engineering degree or a master's in computer science.
  • At least 4 years of experience in full-stack development, data engineering or AI engineering, ideally partly in direct contact with clients or users.
  • The ability to deliver fast and well across the whole chain: backend, data, integration, AI.
  • Hands-on experience with LLMs and automation.
  • Fluent English in a client context, plus the language of your home office.

What will make the difference

  • Experience in a startup, in product engineering or in technical consulting.
  • Industry expertise (manufacturing, finance, retail, healthcare).
  • A portfolio of delivered projects you can show us.

Your mindset

  • Autonomous, resourceful, comfortable with ambiguity.
  • Empathetic with users, demanding with code.
  • You would rather solve a real problem than polish a demo.

What we expect from all our talent

  • An obsession with business impact: you quickly understand our clients' business, and you know how to challenge it.
  • A strong sense of service and client experience.
  • Top-level communication, written and spoken: you simplify, you bring people along.
  • Advanced mastery of AI and automation tools: you can show us an agent or a prototype you built yourself.
  • Ambition and rigor, serving a team that puts the collective before the individual.

Interview process

  • Interview with the Talent Acquisition team and/or a Business Manager
  • Technical interview with an engine expert
  • Interview with the Managing Director or the Engine Director
