Stratos

Senior Forward Deployed Engineer

📍 London, 💼 –+ years🏠 On-site◷ Full Time

About the role

About us
STRATOS builds the commercial digital twin that large industrial companies run on. We work with global B2B companies to synchronize strategy and execution and ensure commercial success is driven by potential, not gut feel or old data. STRATOS is a category-defining, rapidly growing startup, profitable and majority founder-owned with our Series A still ahead of us, funded by high-profile investors (e.g., Accel) and trusted by 15 global industrial leaders and Fortune 500 customers. Our software integrates complex datasets into a unified solution, combining deep data integration, best-in-class workflows, and cutting-edge generative AI.
The role
Lead the deployments that decide how some of the world's biggest industrial companies grow. As a Senior FDE, you own the technical side of a client relationship, set the architecture, ship to production and grow the engineers around you, with founders who stay close to the work.
What you'll do
Lead deployments end to end for one or more clients, from scoping with their leadership to running production systems

Own the architecture for data pipelines, ontologies and AI workflows on Palantir Foundry and AIP

Be the technical lead in the room at client senior level: you're the engineer they trust to tell them what's possible and what to build first

Grow the FDEs around you through code review, pairing and setting the bar for quality and speed

Shape the roadmap with Product and our founders, turning patterns you see across clients into reusable product

You might be a fit if you
Have 4+ years in data engineering, software engineering or forward-deployed roles, with production systems you're proud of

Write expert Python, PySpark and SQL, and design data models that hold up at scale

Have led client-facing technical work and can explain trade-offs to executives

Make good decisions quickly with imperfect information, and back them

Want a big say in how a profitable, fast-growing company builds its engineering team

Nice to have
Palantir Foundry or AIP in production

TypeScript, API development or front-end work

ERP (SAP, Oracle) or CRM data at enterprise scale

Experience in specialty chemicals, building materials or other industrial sectors

Why engineers join us
Big clients, small team. Some of the biggest names in industry, served by a team of 40. Your work reaches their leadership in weeks, not years.

Own the stack. We fully control our stack and choose our tools. No committees, no tickets passed between five teams, no egos.

Built to last. Profitable, founder-led and majority founder-owned, backed by high-profile investors (e.g., Accel), with our Series A still ahead of us. That means growth on our terms and real upside for early joiners.

Learn from people who've done it. Founders who have run a $1B business, plus people from Palantir, McKinsey and BCG, all in the same room.

In person, on purpose. Three days a week together in Farringdon. Fast feedback, fast decisions and fast shipping.

What we offer

Direct access to Fortune 500 executives from your first months, at a level most people wait a decade for
