Full Stack Software Engineer - Forward Deployed Europe

We're building Orbital, an industrial AI system that lives inside refineries and upstream assets, serving real-time insights to operators, technologists, and engineers. As a Forward Deployed Full Stack Engineer, you'll make Orbital usable on the ground: building interfaces, APIs, and integration layers that bring AI outputs directly into operational workflows. This isn't a typical web dev role. You'll work across back-end services, APIs, and industrial integrations, while also shaping front-end interfaces that can survive operator control rooms and engineering workflows. You'll be customer-facing: working directly with site teams, adapting features in real time, and making sure the system sticks in production. You won't just productionise models, you'll install Orbital on customer sites, integrate with live historian and process data pipelines, and ensure the system runs inside customer IT/OT networks.
