Desirable

• At Keyrus, we help organisations transform complexity into measurable outcomes by combining technology, data, intelligence and human decision-making. We bring together data, AI and engineering expertise to move beyond experimentation and deliver solutions that work in real business environments
• As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you'll work directly with clients to take AI use cases from discovery to production. You'll get close to users, understand how their work actually happens, build the technical solution yourself and stay involved until it delivers measurable results
• You'll combine software development, AI engineering, data integration and technical problem-solving with direct client collaboration
• Build end-to-end solutions: Develop and deploy AI-powered applications that connect source data, models, APIs and enterprise systems to real users
• Stay hands-on: Write, test, review and maintain code using technologies such as Python, TypeScript, Java or .NET
• Work directly with users: Understand operational challenges, observe how people work and translate their needs into practical technical solutions
• Integrate with enterprise environments: Connect applications to APIs, identity systems, cloud platforms and existing business systems, addressing the realities of production deployment
• Deliver production-ready AI: Build and integrate LLM, RAG or agentic capabilities, with appropriate evaluation, guardrails, reliability and cost controls
• Own deployment and rollout: Take technical responsibility for bringing solutions into production, resolving integration issues and supporting adoption
• Adapt as needs evolve: Respond to new information and changing priorities, iterating quickly while maintaining technical quality and clear communication
• Measure outcomes: Work with clients to understand whether the solution is delivering the intended result and identify what needs to improve
• Feed the next cycle: Document results, lessons learned and emerging requirements so the squad can make informed decisions about the next iteration or scaling the solution

• We usually respond within a week
• Target start date: ASAP
