Forward Deployed Engineer - Agentic AI - Contract

Mindera is looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer who enjoys working closely to the business and solving real operational problems. If you’re comfortable working with ambiguity and don’t need everything perfectly defined before you start, this role will be perfect for you.

We are looking for someone who enjoys building agentic AI and automation solutions, but you’re also happy upskilling others to build their own as well as being motivated by outcomes and adoption rather than demos or proofs of concept.

This is a contract position where 2-3 days per week on site in Central London are expected.

Requirements

What you’ll be doing

• Working alongside business teams to understand their processes, pain points, and constraints
• Designing and building agentic AI solutions using Copilot Studio, AI Foundry, Power Automate, and Power Apps
• Building end‑to‑end solutions directly for departments or cross‑functional, enterprise‑wide use cases
• Supporting business department champions who are self‑building their own agents, apps, and automation flows
• Identifying, designing, and implementing integrations and connectors to internal systems and external services
• Selecting appropriate integration approaches, including out‑of‑the‑box connectors, custom connectors, or APIs
• Combining agents, automation, and apps into reliable, production‑ready workflows
• Deploying and supporting solutions in production Power Platform environments
• Providing guidance, reviews, and practical support to non‑technical business champions
• Staying accountable for adoption, performance, and real‑world impact

What you’ll bring

• Hands‑on experience building agentic AI solutions using Copilot Studio and AI Foundry
• Strong experience with Power Automate, including event‑driven and long‑running workflows
• Experience building Power Apps to support operational processes
• Proven ability to design and build integrations and custom connectors using APIs, authentication, and data mapping
• Experience working directly with business stakeholders, including non‑technical users
• A practical, delivery‑focused mindset and comfort working with ambiguity
• The ability to balance hands‑on delivery with supporting and enabling others to build safely
• Experience with AI governance, safety, or evaluation in enterprise environments is a bonus
• Familiarity with RAG, semantic search, or LLM‑enabled workflows is a bonus
