An engineer working next to your trade

The forward deployed model sends the engineer to where the problem is, rather than shipping a generic product from head office. They work on your data, inside your constraints, next to the people who will use the tool.

On your real dataWith your usersSkills handed over

Why this role

A specification describes what we think we know about the work. Three days spent with the users reveal what we did not know: the file that stays open all day, the step everyone skips, the question people ask again because the answer is nowhere.

What it does concretely

Watch the real work before writing a single line of code
Build a short first version, put it in the hands of users, correct it
Connect the tool to the systems already in place, without demanding that everything change
Leave behind a team able to keep alive what has been built

On a real project

On the redesign of a field team scheduling tool, watching the work done on the road led to removing rather than adding: twenty three navigation entries brought down to six, three dashboards merged into a single cockpit.

What it is not

This is not fixed price subcontracting behind a frozen specification, nor an audit that produces a report. The engineer delivers software that runs.

Inside your team

A profile joins your team for an agreed period, works on your tools and your data, and passes on what they build as they go.

On a deliverable

The role is mobilised on a project with a defined scope, alongside the other skills required. You receive a deliverable, not a report.
