Forward Deployed Pioneer AI Talent Accelerator (Hiring Immediately)

SilverTree Equity
London

SilverTree's AI Talent Accelerator is seeking high-calibre graduates and early-career professionals to join their new team of Forward Deployed Engineers (FDEs).

FDEs will be embedded at executive level inside our portfolio companies, with the mandate and mentorship to create real operational impact from day one.

Programme: Built Upon a Dual Structure

FDEs will develop both operational capability and strategic thinking through a dual structure:

  • Gain senior exposure working closely with leading operators and the executive team at a portfolio company
  • Work from inside the SilverTree office and receive mentorship from the SilverTree Amplify team , our central AI hub responsible for capability building across the fund and portfolio

Goal: Measurable P&L Impact from Day One

FDEs will be trained to bring an AI-native mindset into every business challenge and develop:

  • Daily fluency with tools such as Claude Code (we'll teach you!), N8N, Perplexity, and other emerging models
  • An ability to ship working automations and prototypes using AI-assisted coding platforms
  • A knack for spotting AI opportunities that unlock real leverage and ROI

The Amplify team has already delivered 7-figures in topline growth impact, and they're ready to mentor incoming FDEs to scale that success.

Role: AI-driven Value Creation

FDEs will be empowered to create and deliver actual ROI for portfolio companies, not just prove hypothetical MVPs. FDEs will:

  • Map processes and identify AI-enabled growth levers
  • Sit at the cutting edge of AI tooling and roll out impactful updates
  • Work with CEOs/CTOs to build out new product roadmaps

Person: Relentless Operators

We're not looking to hire resumes; we hire mindsets. Successful FDEs are:

Scrappy. Curious. Action-oriented. Resilient. Ownership-driven.

Whether that mindset shows up through side projects, community builds, freelance hacks, competitions, open-source contributions, or experimentation, we're interested in how you can think, learn, and build.

The Journey: Your Accelerated Growth Path

FDEs will be set on a steep growth trajectory. Our goal is to empower and guide FDEs to learn as much in the first three months on the programme as they would in their first few years at a traditional firm.

Fully-formed FDEs have:

  • Deep, real-world AI experience
  • An impressive portfolio of shipped impact
  • Open doors to future strategic and leadership roles

Within a year, our top-performing FDEs will have the opportunity to transition into further exciting roles, either to remain within their portfolio company or to take on a role within SilverTree's wider ecosystem.

Requirements

Mindset

  • Scrappy and resourceful: finds a way regardless of constraints
  • Bias to action: ships fast, iterates faster
  • Genuinely curious: self-directed, and constantly learning
  • Resilient: comfortable when the path forward isn't clear
  • Low ego and highly coachable: no task is beneath you, no feedback is wasted
  • Ownership mentality: treats the company's problems as your own

Technical Skills

  • Knowledge of leading AI tools including Claude Code, N8N, and Perplexity (not expert-level, we can coach you)
  • Ability to build working automations and internal tools using AI-assisted coding platforms
  • Comfort with prompt engineering and agentic workflows
  • Familiarity with the evolving AI landscape and emerging models

Commercial Skills

  • Strong analytical and communication skills
  • Ability to translate between technical concepts and business priorities
  • Confidence working with and presenting to senior stakeholders
  • Sharp instinct for identifying where AI can unlock operational leverage
  • Commercially minded with an awareness of P&L impact
