Forward Deployed Engineer | 315% YoY SaaS scaleup
Most “customer-facing technical” roles are still one-sided:
- You either stay close to customers, but far from the real technical work.
Or
2. You stay technical, but far from the actual business impact.
This one sits right in the middle.
We’re hiring a Forward Deployed Engineer for a fast-growing B2B data SaaS company transforming how sales teams define and target their markets.
TL;DR
Location: London (hybrid)
Setup: 2-3 days in office
Language: English
Focus: Data modelling, integrations, customer delivery
Stack: CRM (Salesforce/HubSpot), APIs, JSON, data warehouse
Comp: ~£65-75k base + bonus
Growth: 315% YoY
The role
You’ll work directly with customers and commercial teams to build and deliver custom datasets that drive real revenue outcomes.
This isn’t a typical pre-sales role — it’s hands-on, iterative, and deeply tied to how customers actually go to market.
That means:
- building and refining datasets based on real CRM data
- translating GTM needs into data models and queries
- integrating data into CRMs, sequencing tools, and warehouses
- working with APIs, JSON, and data pipelines
- iterating continuously based on performance and feedback
- feeding insights back into Product and Engineering
Why this role exists
The company is scaling fast, but custom dataset creation is the bottleneck.
This hire is fundamental to unlocking growth -> increasing speed, quality, and scalability across sales and onboarding.
Who it could suit
You don’t need to be a software engineer.
You do need to be:
- good with data (analysis, wrangling, spreadsheets)
- technically comfortable (APIs, integrations, structured data)
- curious, proactive, and able to operate with ambiguity
- confident enough to work directly with customers (C-suite)
Why it’s interesting
- You own the technical side of revenue delivery, not just demos
- You work on real data problems, not generic use cases
- You sit at the intersection of Sales, Product, and Data
- You join a company growing 315% YoY, where this role is mission-critical
This is a strong one for someone who wants to stay technical, be customer-facing, and have direct impact on how revenue teams operate.
