About the role

Forward Deployed EngineerScope automates the regulation that’s slowing down the physical world. Standards are vital for the safety of our infrastructure. Spending hours manually documenting them is not.Dave is an inspector. Today he’s climbing through one of Europe’s biggest ammonia plants, looking for the corrosion that could shut the whole site down, with a notebook and pen in hand. Tomorrow, he’ll spend even longer on the part of the job he hates: turning those scribbles into a report.We’re reinventing this process for the AI era. Scope radically simplifies how inspectors collect data in the field, make decisions, and produce reports. Along the way, we’re building the world’s largest dataset on the condition of the built world and the decisions experts make about it.It’s a $100B+ market and we’re only just getting started. We have grown revenue 5x in the last year and on track to reach 10MM ARR in 2026. 6 of the top 10 companies in the space are clients or piloting with us. Our customers inspect facilities and products for companies including AstraZeneca and SpaceX.We’ve assembled a best in class team: former and future founders, people from institutions like Imperial, Carnegie Mellon and Oxford, and from firms like Goldman Sachs, McKinsey and Amazon. Since launching from Entrepreneurs First in 2024, we’ve raised $4m in seed funding from Susa Ventures across two rounds and closing our Series A in April from a Tier 1 fund.

  • Partner with engineering and product to turn one off solutions into scalable features
