Forward Deployed AI Engineer

NewRocketAmsterdamRemoteFull-time26 Aug 2026

NewRocket is seeking a Senior Forward Deployed AI Engineer to join its AI Foundry team, working directly with customers to deploy, operationalize, and scale AI-powered workflow solutions. The role blends full-stack engineering, enterprise integration, generative AI implementation, and client-facing solution delivery, with a focus on Claude and other leading AI technologies. Requires 5-8 years of software engineering experience and strong LLM engineering skills.

What you'll do

Deploy, configure, and operationalize agentic AI workflows, AI assistants, and AI-powered automations within client ServiceNow environments and enterprise technology ecosystems.
Translate customer business requirements, operational processes, and desired outcomes into technical architectures, implementation plans, and production-ready AI solutions.
Implement and integrate NewRocket Agent Packs, AI accelerators, and workflow solutions into enterprise environments.
Work directly with customer teams to tailor AI solutions to their operating models, business processes, data sources, security requirements, and user needs.
Support workshops, discovery sessions, technical working sessions, demonstrations, pilots, and production rollouts.
Clearly communicate AI capabilities, limitations, tradeoffs, solution behavior, and adoption considerations to technical and business stakeholders.
Build enterprise AI applications and workflows using Claude, the Anthropic API, and other LLM platforms as appropriate for the client use case.
Apply effective prompt and context-engineering techniques, including clear instructions, examples, role and task definition, structured inputs, response constraints, and long-context management.
Design and implement AI workflows using structured outputs, tool use/function calling, API integrations, multi-step orchestration, and human-in-the-loop review patterns.
Build retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) solutions that ground AI responses in authorized enterprise data and knowledge sources.
Implement practical techniques to improve reliability and user trust, including citation or source-grounding patterns, validation, confidence thresholds, output schemas, fallback handling, and escalation workflows.
Stay current on Anthropic platform capabilities, Claude model releases, implementation guidance, responsible AI principles, and enterprise deployment best practices.
Complete relevant Anthropic training, partner enablement, and technical education programs as available, and incorporate those practices into NewRocket solution delivery.
Build demos, prototypes, and proof-of-concept implementations that validate AI-driven workflows and customer use cases.
Rapidly iterate with customers and internal teams to refine AI-powered solutions based on feedback, performance results, and operational needs.
Support the design and implementation of AI orchestration, LLM integrations, agentic decision models, and workflow automation patterns.
Evaluate when an agentic approach is appropriate versus deterministic automation, traditional workflow logic, search, analytics, or human review.
Develop reusable implementation patterns, solution templates, prompt libraries, integrations, and deployment assets that accelerate future client delivery.
Develop secure integrations between ServiceNow, enterprise systems, APIs, data platforms, and AI services.
Build supporting components such as scripts, microservices, automation logic, integration services, and lightweight user interfaces.
Implement integrations with AI platforms, enterprise APIs, identity systems, document repositories, databases, and structured and unstructured data sources.
Apply sound engineering practices for authentication, authorization, secrets management, access controls, logging, error handling, version control, and documentation.
Design solutions that meet enterprise expectations for security, scalability, maintainability, observability, and production readiness.
Develop and execute practical evaluation approaches for AI applications, including test cases, representative datasets, success metrics, and regression testing.
Assess AI workflow quality across dimensions such as relevance, accuracy, groundedness, task completion, safety, latency, cost, and user experience.
Implement safeguards for sensitive data, role-based permissions, appropriate data access, prompt injection risks, unsafe tool use, and unintended model behavior.
Establish human-in-the-loop workflows for sensitive, high-impact, low-confidence, or exception-based decisions.
Document AI solution behavior, known limitations, risk controls, governance considerations, and operational support procedures.
Monitor and improve deployed solutions based on user feedback, usage patterns, performance data, incidents, and evolving customer needs.
Actively contribute to the development and evolution of NewRocket’s AI intellectual property and platforms, including NewRocket Intelligence Platform, Value Realization Dashboard, Data Intelligence Platform, and Agent Packs and reusable AI solution accelerators.
Identifying common patterns, requirements, integration needs, and capabilities discovered through customer deployments.
Contributing reusable assets, integration components, prompt patterns, evaluation frameworks, and automation capabilities.
Providing actionable product feedback that improves usability, reliability, scalability, security, and customer value.
Helping transform successful client implementations into repeatable platform features, accelerators, and delivery playbooks.
Supporting the definition of standards and best practices for enterprise AI delivery across NewRocket’s AI Foundry.
Diagnose and resolve technical issues across AI workflows, integrations, retrieval pipelines, data connections, and automation processes.
Troubleshoot issues related to model inputs and outputs, prompt behavior, tool execution, API reliability, permissions, data quality, and system performance.
Ensure deployed AI solutions are secure, scalable, supportable, and production-ready.
Optimize deployed systems for reliability, performance, latency, model usage, and cost efficiency.
Work closely with Business Process Consultants, Product Engineering, Data Engineers, AI/ML Engineers, ServiceNow teams, and the AI Center of Excellence.
Serve as the engineering counterpart to consulting and delivery teams throughout discovery, solution design, implementation, rollout, and continuous improvement.
Contribute to internal playbooks, technical documentation, reusable deployment patterns, reference architectures, and product evolution.
Share lessons learned from customer deployments to strengthen NewRocket’s AI delivery capabilities and solution portfolio.
