Senior Forward Deployed Engineer

Talan

<div>Company Description 
Talan Data x AI is a leading Data Management and Analytics consultancy, working closely with leading software vendors and top industry experts across a range of sectors, unlocking value and insight from their data. At Talan Data x AI, innovation is at the heart of our client offerings, and we help companies to further improve their efficiency with modern processes and technologies, such as Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI). 
Job Description 
We are hiring a Lead Data Scientist to drive the technical delivery of our most demanding AI engagements and to lead a growing team of data scientists and AI engineers. This role is for a practitioner who is equally fluent in the rigour of traditional data science (statistical modelling, machine learning, experimentation) and the fast-moving world of large language models and agentic AI. You understand that the best solutions often combine both.
You will own delivery from problem framing through to deployment, ensuring the work is technically sound, commercially valuable, and aligned to the architectural vision. As a lead, you will mentor the team, raise engineering and modelling standards, and act as a trusted technical partner in client conversations. You will help clients see not just what is possible, but what is practical and worth doing.
This is a delivery-focused leadership role with genuine breadth: one week you might be tuning a forecasting model, the next designing an agentic workflow or evaluating an LLM pipeline for a client pilot.
Required skills &amp; experience:<ul><li>
Lead end-to-end delivery of data science and AI projects, owning technical quality and outcomes.</li><li>
Combine classical ML (regression, classification, forecasting, optimisation) with modern GenAI, LLM, and agent-based approaches as the problem demands.</li><li>
Mentor and develop data scientists, AI engineers, and junior consultants, growing the team's capability.</li><li>
Translate business problems into well-scoped analytical and AI solutions and communicate results to non-technical stakeholders.</li><li>
Ensure best practice across the AI lifecycle &mdash; experimentation, evaluation, testing, deployment, and monitoring.</li><li>
Act as the bridge between architecture and delivery, ensuring implementation stays faithful to design.</li><li>
Support pre-sales and client discussions with credible technical input and realistic estimation.</li><li>
