We've partnered with a fast growing VC backed AI SaaS startup who are on a mission to redefine how enterprises leverage data and automation. Backed by top-tier investors and already gaining serious traction, they’re now hiring a Founding Forward Deployed Engineer to work directly with customers and shape the future of the product.

This is a rare opportunity to join at the ground floor, influence core architecture, and operate at the intersection of engineering, product, and customer success.

The Role:

  • Work hands-on with customers to deploy and customize the platform in real-world environments
  • Translate complex business problems into scalable technical solutions
  • Build rapid prototypes, integrations, and production-ready features
  • Partner closely with product & engineering to feed customer insights into the roadmap
  • Own end-to-end implementations—from design to deployment

Wish List:

  • Strong engineering background (Python, TypeScript, or similar)
  • Experience working in customer-facing or forward-deployed roles (solutions engineering, implementation, etc.)
  • Experience already working in a production ready environment.
  • Ability to thrive in ambiguity and move quickly
  • Excellent communication skills—comfortable with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Startup mindset: ownership, adaptability, and bias toward action

Benefits of the role:

  • Founding team exposure with meaningful equity
  • Direct impact on product direction and company growth
  • Work with cutting-edge SaaS + AI-driven technologies
  • High-growth environment with strong funding and momentum
