A forward-deployed AI engineer, working inside your team.
When the work is bigger than one project, embedding an engineer beats project billing. Your specialist joins your stand-ups, learns your systems and ships AI continuously.
Deliverables
What your specialist delivers
Hands-on engineering, not advice from the sidelines.
Agents & automation
Builds and maintains the agents and workflows your teams rely on.
Integrations
Connects CRM, ERP, inboxes and internal tools to AI safely.
Knowledge systems
Turns scattered documents into searchable, cited answers.
Evals & monitoring
Measures quality, catches regressions and keeps costs in check.
Roadmap delivery
Works through the priorities from your AI roadmap, sprint by sprint.
Team enablement
Trains your people so AI adoption sticks after the code ships.
Process
From first call to first sprint
- 1
Discovery call
We learn your goals, stack and how much capacity you need.
- 2
Specialist match
We pair you with an engineer whose experience fits your domain.
- 3
Kick-off sprint
The first two weeks deliver a quick win and a prioritised backlog.
- 4
Ongoing delivery
Weekly progress, monthly reviews and a team bench behind every specialist.
Never on their own
One engineer in your team. Our whole bench behind them.
Your specialist is the person you work with every day, but they never solve hard problems alone.
Senior code reviews
Every significant change is reviewed by another Vantyr engineer before it ships.
Escalation on tough problems
Tricky architecture, security or model questions are worked through with the wider team.
Shared playbooks
Patterns, prompts and tooling proven on other engagements come with your specialist.
Cover when they are away
Holidays and sick days do not stall your roadmap; someone steps in.
Why not just outsource?
Closer than an agency, lighter than a hire.
Embedding a specialist gives you the focus of an employee with the flexibility of a contract.
Ready on day one
Specialists arrive already fluent in agents, RAG and integrations.
Managed by us
We handle performance, growth and quality, so you are not managing a contractor.
They find the work
They spot the next automation opportunity instead of waiting for tickets.
Kept up to date
We keep them current as models and tooling change every few months.
Tooling included
Development environments, evaluation tooling and monitoring come with them.
Flexible capacity
Scale between fractional and full-time as your programme grows or settles.
Engagement

Fit
Who it is for
Scaling SMBs
Several AI initiatives running at once and no one to own them.

You need a builder at your side, not another agency hand-off.
Ops & tech leaders
You want AI capacity without a long hiring cycle.
