Principal - Forward Deployed Engineer
Position Summary GSK's Enterprise AI team builds AI solutions that prove value fast and scale to production. Forward Deployed Engineering is the front of the Enterprise AI delivery pipeline — proving AI ideas with the business through PoCs, PoVs, MVPs, and, where appropriate, first production versions, before handing proven solutions to Solutions Engineering for scale-up — bringing to GSK a model proven by AI-native companies such as Anthropic, Palantir, and OpenAI. You will act as the most senior technical authority in the FDE function, operating at enterprise scope with two equal mandates: setting the standards for AI-native, enterprise-level development across GSK — architecture, agentic delivery-automation workflows, delivery bot meshes, evaluation, and governance — and owning FDE delivery outcomes for a defined portfolio of strategic business units. This is a senior technical leadership role for someone who leads through technical credibility: staying hands-on at the frontier of AI-augmented engineering, leading Staff and Senior FDEs on the most consequential engagements and shaping how AI engineering is done well beyond the FDE team. As Enterprise AI scales, the value of each engagement increasingly depends on what it leaves behind: you will set standards from real delivery experience, prove them inside the business units that matter most, and serve as the escalation point for the hardest architecture, ML, and agentic-engineering decisions. Humans steer, agents execute. Responsibilities This role will provide YOU the opportunity to lead key activities to progress YOUR career.
