London, England, United Kingdom Hybrid Full-time

Diligent Corporation is hiring a Forward Deployed Engineer - Agentic AI

Responsibilities

  • Run discovery workshops with enterprise customers to understand their workflows and needs.
  • Identify which workflows are genuinely ripe for agentic automation.
  • Prototype AI agents rapidly and test with real practitioners.
  • Stay with customers until the agent is reliable enough to be trusted.
  • Feed learnings back into the platform to identify patterns for generalization.
  • Write code to build and improve AI agents.
  • Build evaluation infrastructure for agent performance and reliability.
  • Design golden datasets grounded in real audit and risk workflows.
  • Catch agent regressions before customers do.
  • Shape the agent roadmap and technical decisions in collaboration with Product and Engineering.

Requirements

  • Have shipped at least one production agent and know what the reliability cliff feels like.
  • Understand the full Agent Development Life Cycle: evaluation, guardrails, observability, regression — not just deployment.
  • Are as comfortable in a room with a Chief Risk Officer as you are debugging a failing agent trace.
  • Are genuinely curious about how risk managers, internal auditors, and compliance professionals work.
  • Can tell the difference between a workflow that needs an agent and one that needs a button.
  • Want to be the person who makes enterprise agentic AI actually land, not the person who hands it off.

Work Arrangement

Hybrid — EU, US

Additional Information

  • Travel is a meaningful part of this role. You’ll be on-site regularly with enterprise customers across EU and US markets.
  • The role involves understanding enterprise GRC, global banks, large regulated corporations, and sophisticated internal audit and risk functions.
  • You don’t need a compliance background, but you need the curiosity to learn it fast and the presence to earn trust with senior risk and audit professionals.
