Deployment Strategist at Fleetcraft (London, United Kingdom)
Fleetcraft· London, United Kingdom·
Role details
Job description
About Fleetcraft
We’re building the critical infrastructure for the next generation of aircraft. Aerospace demand is surging. OEMs have decade-long backlogs, new manufacturers are racing to market, and the industry is hundreds of thousands of technicians short. The world needs more aerospace capacity, but the systems used to maintain and manufacture aircraft are slow, manual, and barely changed in decades. We’re building agents that work alongside technicians, understand the aircraft, capture the repair as it happens, and turn expertise into intelligence the whole operation can use. Our seed was led by Susa Ventures, alongside Liquid 2 VC, early backers of Anduril and Stoke Space. You’ll work with a team that has helped launch airlines and put satellites into orbit, and with an aviation advisory board whose members have run major aircraft OEMs, led airworthiness at Gulfstream, and overseen training facilities that educate a quarter of all aircraft mechanics in the US.
The role
As a Deployment Strategist, you’ll own customer implementation end-to-end. You’ll translate complex operational requirements into AI-solutions, work hands-on with customers to drive adoption, and turn what you learn in the field into sales and engineering priorities. This is a highly hands-on, high-ownership role. You’ll spend time in our office with the team, but also on-site with customers in hangars, maintenance facilities, and manufacturing environments, around the world. You’ll work directly with technicians, operators, managers, and executives to understand their workflows, deploy Fleetcraft into live environments, and make sure the product becomes mission-critical.
What we're looking for
We’re looking for someone with exceptional learning velocity, commercial instinct, and technical competence. You should be pragmatic, intentional, and very structured. Aerospace experience is not required - the ability to learn quickly, adapt, and handle complex implementations with high emotional intelligence.
You should be technically fluent enough to understand AI and software systems and commercially curious enough to understand what drives customer value.
What we offer
£80k–£120k salary plus meaningful early-stage equity.
A small, high-trust team where your decisions move the whole company forward. Relocation support if needed. Modern tools, real-world impact in a regulated industry, and the chance to define how AI transforms aerospace from the ground up.
If you're energised by building production AI systems that solve hard, real-world problems - and you want the ownership and pace that only comes from being early at something important, we'd love to talk.
