Forward Deployed AI Engineer

About the Role

Join an engineering team building AI workflow automation for the insurance industry. This hands-on, customer-facing role combines software development with post-sales discovery, turning enterprise brokerage needs into deployed solutions and scalable platform improvements.

What You'll Do

• Own customer implementations from requirements gathering through deployment.

• Build and ship AI agents and automations, often within a week of scoping a customer need.

• Work directly with enterprise customers after the sale to understand workflows and define technical solutions.

• Bring successful customer-specific solutions into the core platform.

• Partner with product and engineering teams to turn customer insights into reusable features.

What We're Looking For

• Three to six years of software engineering experience in forward-deployed, implementation, solutions, or product engineering roles.

• Production engineering experience shipping customer-facing features or automations, with a strong balance of coding and customer scoping.

• Proficiency in Python and/or TypeScript, with full-stack development experience.

• Experience at a venture-backed startup and comfort working in a fast-moving environment.

• Strong customer communication, ownership, and ability to switch between discovery conversations and focused coding.

• Experience delivering post-sales customer solutions on a rapid timeline.

• AI/ML or LLM automation experience in production is a plus, as is familiarity with insurance or financial services.
