Consulting Jobs in Greater London, United Kingdom (Now Hiring) — 512 open — Page 17

Treasure AI:

Treasure AI is the agentic experience platform built to acquire, retain, and grow your most valuable customers. Powered by AI, Treasure AI is shaped by human creativity and always-on through continuous, context-driven action.

Furthermore, Treasure AI employees are enthusiastic, data-driven, and customer-obsessed. We are a team of drivers—self-starters who take initiative, anticipate needs, and proactively jump in to solve problems. Our actions reflect our values of honesty, reliability, openness, and humility.

Your Role:

Treasure AI is hiring a Staff Forward Deployed Engineer dedicated to some of our most strategic global customers — think large enterprises in the e-commerce and retail space. This is not a typical customer-facing or professional services role. You will be embedded at the intersection of product engineering and customer success, working directly alongside the customer's engineering and data teams to design, build, and productize real-time data solutions that drive measurable business outcomes. The goal is for you to define the technical engagement model for our strategic accounts, and set the standards and patterns our other FDE’s will adopt.

This role exists because the problems we're solving here are genuinely hard: business objectives are clear, but the system-level "how" is not. You will explore, define, and build those answers — together with the customer and together with Treasure AI's real-time platform engineering team. In this role you will identify and frame new problem domains for the FDE team to pursue (you don't just get assigned hard problems, you find them)

You will report to the Senior Director of Forward Deployed Engineering and collaborate closely with our Real-Time R&D and Platform Engineering teams.

Responsibilities:

Our customers operate at a global scale and need to act on customer behavior in real time — think cart abandonment personalization, push notification triggers, and dynamic offer delivery within seconds of a web or app event. In this role you will define and execute how to close the gap between raw behavioral data and a personalized customer experience.

Your work will cycle through four phases — continuously:

• Explore & Discover — Work with the customer to surface and frame the real problem, not just the stated requirement. Proactively find and articulate issues the customer has not yet thought of.

  • Run deep technical discovery sessions with the customer's engineering and data teams to understand current architecture, constraints, and failure modes

  • Identify gaps between what the customer believes they need and what will actually move the needle on business outcomes

  • Map dependencies across systems before a line of design work begins

  • Bring a point of view into the room: you're not facilitating, you're diagnosing

• Define — Translate ambiguous business objectives into a clear system-level problem statement. You own the translation layer between business intent and technical architecture.

  • Author technical scoping documents that align customer stakeholders, Treasure AI R&D, and platform engineering around a shared understanding of the problem

  • Define success criteria that are measurable and tied to business outcomes

• Build — Design and validate solutions on both the customer side and the Treasure AI product side

  • Design streaming architectures that handle real-world complexity: late-arriving events, schema drift, backpressure, partial failures, and sub-second SLA requirements

  • Drive technical decisions with clear rationale; when tradeoffs exist, you name them explicitly and own the call

• Productize — Where solutions are generalizable, drive them into capabilities other customers can use.

  • Distill what you've built into reusable reference architectures, implementation guides, and decision frameworks for the broader FDE team

A great solution in this role means: quality is maintained after you move on, and it gets easier to maintain as the product evolves — not harder.

Job Requirements:

• 8+ years of software or data engineering experience, with at least 2 years in a customer-facing, embedded, or solutions engineering capacity

• Strong hands-on experience with streaming and event-driven architectures — Kafka, Flink, Kinesis, Spark Streaming, or equivalent (DynamoDB and MemoryDB/Redis)

• AWS Cloud Fluency - understand how to design scalable end-to-end architectures and pipelines on large volumes of data (think Kafka/Flink for streaming + AWS Lambda + Kinesis)

• Solid data engineering fundamentals: pipeline design, SQL, Python, schema modeling, data quality

• Experience building or integrating with CDP, marketing automation, or behavioral data-management platforms

• Proven ability to go from ambiguous problem to working system — you've done greenfield technical work where no playbook existed

• Capable of operating at both the whiteboard and the terminal; you can lead a technical workshop with a customer's engineering team in the morning and be deep in code in the afternoon

• Strong written and verbal communication — you can make a complex architecture legible to a non-technical stakeholder and earn trust at the top most levels of an organization

Strong Plus

• Experience with real-time personalization, push notification pipelines, or cart-abandonment / trigger-based marketing systems

• Kotlin and Node/Javascript or Java/Scala

• Familiarity with ML model serving in streaming contexts (feature stores, real-time inference)

• Prior work at a data platform, CDP, or martech company

How You'll Work

This is a 40% customer engagement / 60% engineering role. Concretely, that means:

• Regular working sessions and workshops with the customer's engineering and data teams at their London office

• Collaborative design and build work with Treasure AI's real-time platform engineering team

• Quarterly leadership meetings, occasionally in continental Europe

• You are not an order-taker — you have genuine influence over what gets built and how

• This role is permanent and open-ended. You are not parachuting in for a fixed engagement. You are building something durable.

Why This Role

• You will work on a real hard problem with a real large customer — not a demo environment

• Your work has a direct line to product evolution at Treasure AI; you are building the playbook for real-time customer data at enterprise scale

• You will be part of a small, senior FDE team where your work is visible to leadership

The problems here are genuinely new — RT best practices don't fully exist yet, and you'll help write them
