We are looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) who builds like a core systems engineer and communicates like a peer to elite researchers. You will embed directly with technical teams at customer organizations—working shoulder-to-shoulder with their machine learning engineers, researchers, and infrastructure leads—to architect, code, and deploy complex AI agent systems into production.

What you'll do:

  • Code & Ship Systems: Design, build, and deploy production-ready AI agent architectures tailored to high-complexity customer environments (think Decagon, Sierra, Harvey, or Glean-style workflows).
  • Engage Technical Peers: Lead deep technical discussions, code reviews, and architecture reviews directly with client engineers and ML researchers, establishing immediate credibility.
  • Bridge Product & Customer: Extract core engineering patterns from client deployments to inform and directly contribute to our core platform and product roadmap.
  • Unblock Deployment Pipelines: Diagnose performance bottlenecks, hallucination vectors, state-management failures, and latency issues across high-throughput agent pipelines.
