MORELA | JOB SPECIFICATION
Forward Deployed Engineer
How would you like the opportunity to bring your existing engineering skills into the Palantir Foundry domain? Do you enjoy challenging, messy environments and taking products from prototype into production? Then this is the role for you.
This is a permanent position based in London on a hybrid basis, offering a salary of £50,000-£70,000 plus stock options, with visa sponsorship available. It is a rare chance for a talented engineer early in their career to gain hands-on Palantir Foundry experience, deploying it into some of the largest industrial businesses in the world.
About the Client
Morela is proud to be supporting a fast-growing, privately held AI technology company that builds a strategy and operations platform for large industrial enterprises. Founded by former senior executives with experience leading multi-billion-dollar global businesses and overseeing $1bn-scale industrial operations, the company brings together complex internal business data and external market intelligence to create a real-time digital representation of an organisation. By combining data, AI and commercial expertise, its platform helps leadership teams identify growth opportunities, make better-informed strategic decisions and translate those decisions into measurable business outcomes.
They already work with a growing roster of major enterprise customers across several industrial verticals, and have significant open headcount into next year as they scale their forward deployed teams.
The Role
Palantir Foundry experience is one of the most sought-after skill sets in data and AI engineering today, and roles that let you build it from the ground up are genuinely hard to come by. This is one of them. As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you will work hands-on with Foundry every day, taking the client's platform into major enterprise customers and making it work for their business.
