About Elixirr Elixirr International plc is a global consulting firm with a bold ambition: to become the best consulting firm in the world. Founded in 2009 to challenge a declining industry standard, we’ve grown from a single vision into a powerhouse of entrepreneurial talent, delivering boardroom strategy through to execution. After IPO-ing on AIM in July 2020, Elixirr moved to the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange in July 2025.

In that time, our market cap has grown from £98 million to over £350 million – a testament to our differentiated approach and relentless pursuit of excellence. With a presence across the UK, US, EU, and South Africa, and a client base spanning industries and geographies, we’ve welcomed seven boutique firms into the Group. This has broadened our capabilities across creative, digital marketing, data and AI, procurement, transformation, and more.

Our vision of becoming a services unicorn is firmly within reach – and this is just the beginning. We’re looking for exceptional talent to join us on this exciting growth journey and shape the future of consulting. Location You will be based in Frisco.

S. headquarters for Elixirr Digital, leading our data, AI, and digital solutions. It also functions as a key hub for Elixirr Consulting, supporting our broader consulting services across the United States.

Job Summary Forward Deployed Engineers (FDEs) are the people we put in the room when a problem is ambiguous, the data is messy, and a working solution needs to exist in weeks, not quarters. As an FDE at Elixirr, you will embed with our delivery teams and internal functions to go from idea to working prototype, and to build the internal tools and agents that accelerate how Elixirr itself delivers. We’ve deliberately modelled this role on how the category is defined in the market — pioneered at Palantir and scaled by firms like OpenAI.

An FDE is a hybrid of technical lead, consultant and product manager: someone who writes production-quality code, but is just as comfortable sitting with users, understanding how decisions actually get made, and stress-testing a prototype in the field. Business acumen is not a bonus here — it is core to the job. An important scope point: this role is focused on idea-to-prototype and on building internal solutions that make Elixirr faster and better.

A separate, dedicated team owns productionization into enterprise-grade software. You will work closely with them — and hand over cleanly — but the core of your job is learning fast, building fast, and proving value.

Key Responsibilities

Embed With Delivery Teams and Internal Functions Deploy into Elixirr delivery teams and internal functions to identify the highest-leverage AI opportunities inside real workflows. Sit with consultants, operators and end users to understand how decisions are actually made — then design around what you see, not what was described in a deck. Translate ambiguous business problems into concrete agentic solutions with clear success metrics and an honest view of the business case.

Idea to Prototype, Fast Take ideas from napkin to working prototype in days, not quarters. Design, build and demo agents and agentic applications that execute real work — document processing, research, analysis, operational automations, internal copilots, workflow accelerators. Use modern agent frameworks and tooling (LangGraph, Semantic Kernel, AutoGen, CrewAI, MCP, A2A) pragmatically — pick the simplest thing that works.

Instrument prototypes properly from day one: traces, evaluations, cost, latency and user feedback so decisions are grounded in data, not demos. Build Internal Solutions That Compound Ship internal agents and tools that measurably accelerate how Elixirr delivers — from research and analysis to proposal shaping, document production and operational tasks.
