About the Role

We are looking for a Senior Forward Deployed Engineer who combines strong hands-on engineering, enterprise infrastructure expertise, and executive presence.

You will work directly with US-based mid-market and enterprise clients, understand complex business problems, design the technical solution, build and deploy it, integrate it into existing enterprise environments, and remain the trusted technical point of contact.

This is not a ticket-based engineering role. You will own the full journey: Business Problem → Architecture → Build → Integration → Deployment → Client Outcome

What You'll Do

Own client projects end-to-end with minimal handholding Turn ambiguous business problems into technical solutions Design and build production AI agents, applications, automations, integrations, and data pipelines Work with complex enterprise infrastructure, ERP systems, data warehouses, APIs, and cloud environments Make architecture and infrastructure decisions independently Use AI coding tools to build and ship quickly Work directly with client IT teams and senior stakeholders Lead client meetings and clearly explain technical decisions, progress, risks, and next steps

What We're Looking For

Strong Engineering & Architecture Approximately 7–12+ years of software engineering experience; flexible for exceptional candidates Strong hands-on development experience with TypeScript/JavaScript and Python Experience with technologies such as Next.js, PostgreSQL, Supabase, and APIs Ability to independently design system architecture and ship production software Former CTOs, Tech Leads, architects, founders, and consultants are welcome if they are still hands-on

Enterprise Infrastructure Strong enterprise infrastructure experience is a key requirement. You should have experience with: AWS, Azure and/or GCP ERP systems and enterprise integrations Data warehouses and data pipelines Microsoft/enterprise environments Authentication, security, and APIs Complex or legacy enterprise systems You should be able to confidently discuss architecture and infrastructure with a client's IT team. This was explicitly highlighted by the hiring manager as increasingly important.

AI-Native Engineering You should already use tools such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or similar agentic coding tools as part of your normal development workflow. Production experience with several of the following is expected: LLM APIs · AI Agents · RAG · Vector Databases · MCP · Agent Frameworks · AI Automations We care especially about how you work with AI—context, documentation, agents/sub-agents, code review, testing, and QA. Executive Presence This is a highly client-facing position.

You must have:

Excellent spoken and written English Strong confidence and executive presence Experience communicating with senior client stakeholders Ability to explain complex technical topics in business language Confidence leading meetings with executives, operations teams, and enterprise IT Ability to become a trusted technical advisor rather than relying on someone else to manage the client relationship

The client specifically wants engineers who can independently represent the technical work in senior stakeholder meetings.

You're a Strong Fit If

You are a hands-on senior engineer who thinks like an architect, operates like an owner, and communicates like a consultant. You don't wait for detailed specifications. You can understand the business problem, decide what should be built, build it, integrate it into a complex enterprise environment, and confidently present the result to the client.
