Cosine at a glance
Cosine is the UK’s frontier AI lab for autonomous software engineering — not another coding assistant, but our own models, agent stack, eval harnesses, and product layer. We build our agent tooling entirely in-house and post-train open-source models to deliver reliable, enterprise-grade coding performance in security-critical settings.
Our offerings can be used as SaaS, deployed on VPC, on-prem or fully air-gapped. Through this flexability, we are able to service large-scale, highly regulated enterprises and industries including defence, financial service and healthcare.
We’re backed by YC and were recently selected for the UK’s sovereign AI programme. The company is at a rare stage: deep technical work, real enterprise pull, and a chance to shape how AI is deployed inside defence, banking, government, and other high-trust environments.
This role is based in our Hoxton office, five days a week, because close collaboration, fast feedback, and shared context matter for the problems we’re solving.

The role
A Forward Deployed Product Engineer at Cosine works directly with customers and closely across research, engineering, infrastructure, product, and design to turn advanced AI capabilities into intuitive, reliable tools for developers, and deploy them successfully in complex customer environments.
You will be responsible for building and evolving Cosine’s user-facing product surfaces, including dedicated apps and web applications that expose the power of our models through well-designed workflows and interfaces. Your work sits at the intersection of product, platform, and research, translating emerging model capabilities into concrete experiences developers can use every day.
You will work directly with customers to assess their needs, understand their workflows and technical constraints, and design and help implement solutions that meet those needs. You will take ownership of deploying, integrating, and troubleshooting Cosine in complex, security-critical environments, bringing what you learn back into the core product. Hands-on full-stack product development is a central part of the role.
We focus on rapid product iteration without compromising quality. This means building systems that are performant, observable, and robust, while remaining flexible enough to evolve alongside fast-moving research and user needs. You will help define how developers interact with Cosine, from first use through advanced, production-grade workflows.
