Scope is an AI-native data collection platform automating field inspection workflows for the built world. The company serves a $2T market, has grown revenue 5x year-over-year, and is on track to reach $10M ARR in 2026. They work with 6 of the top 10 companies in their space, including customers that inspect for AstraZeneca and SpaceX. Founded in 2024 from Entrepreneurs First, Scope has raised a $20M Series A led by Index Ventures. As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you will own the technical delivery and client relationships for key accounts end-to-end. You'll be embedded with clients, running rollouts from technical scoping through implementation and go-live. Your responsibilities include understanding inspector workflows in factories and chemical plants, configuring technical solutions (workflows, integrations, data structures), managing project timelines and blockers, and building trust with both technical and non-technical stakeholders. You'll work in-person five days a week from the Farringdon office in London, with significant time onsite at client facilities. This is a role for someone who is deeply technical, has strong project management instincts, and genuinely enjoys owning outcomes end-to-end rather than working within narrow scope boundaries. The ideal candidate has 5+ years of experience, strong communication skills, and the ability to solve real technical problems on the spot while managing complex stakeholder relationships. You should be an agentic manager of one who cares more about shipping results than process. US citizenship is noted as a plus to facilitate future growth plans. The company offers competitive base salary with significant equity, full visa sponsorship, comprehensive benefits including medical/dental, generous leave, and a collaborative team environment with regular learning and development opportunities.
