Job Description:

Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) to work directly with customers and deliver AI systems end-to-end. You’ll move fast from prototype to production — building pipelines, fine-tuning models, and creating React-based interfaces that make these systems usable in the real world. This role is equal parts engineering and client-facing: you’ll embed with customers, design and ship solutions alongside them, and act as the face of the company on critical projects.

Job Responsibility:

  • Build and ship production-grade AI systems with Python and React
  • turn demos into end-to-end solutions that customers can actually use
  • fine-tune, evaluate, and deploy LLMs in enterprise environments
  • design pipelines, retrieval frameworks, and integrations across cloud and on-prem
  • work side-by-side with client teams, from engineers to execs
  • capture best practices into reusable frameworks and playbooks

Requirements:

  • 6+ years of experience in software engineering or applied ML
  • fluent in Python + React, and comfortable across backend + frontend
  • worked with modern AI/LLM frameworks (PyTorch, Hugging Face, LangChain, etc.)
  • can talk to both engineers and business leaders with equal confidence
  • enjoy working directly with customers — extroverted, consultative, and thrive in high-trust relationships
  • shipped production systems in complex environments (cloud, hybrid, on-prem)
  • open to regular client travel (25–75%)
What we offer:
  • bonus
  • equity
