Role Summary:

As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you will partner directly with customers to understand their biggest challenges and rapidly design, implement, and integrate technical solutions that drive real impact. This role blends problem-solving, creativity, and hands-on engineering as you help deploy products and workflows in live environments. You’ll gain unique exposure to critical industries and institutions across the country and play a key role in shaping how they operate and innovate.

Our ideal candidate is technically curious, an excellent communicator, and deeply committed to customer success. They thrive in collaborative environments​ working seamlessly with both technical and non-technical partners​ and are comfortable operating in a fast-moving setting with evolving goals and continuous user feedback.

What you'll do

• Technical Solution Design & Architecture: Leverage engineering expertise to design scalable AI workflows for clinical and operational use cases. You will produce professional-grade systems and data-flow diagrams to define interfaces, failure modes, and integration points with EHRs and legacy systems.

• Build & Deploy AI Agents: You will get hands-on to configure and deploy Large Language Model (LLM) powered workflows. This involves applying advanced prompting strategies, building agentic workflows, and tuning vector stores for quality, latency, and cost.

• Security & Compliance Assurance: Perform technical validation of AI algorithm outputs and ensure strict adherence to HIPAA/SOC 2 controls. You will establish guardrails (audit trails, least-privilege access) to ensure safe clinical deployment.

• Execute & Operationalize: Independently manage technical implementation plans, defining scope and setting expectations with customers. You will drive "scrappy-but-safe" prototypes into production and facilitate the transition to steady-state ownership alongside Customer Success teams.

• Stakeholder Engagement: Serve as the technical voice in customer meetings, translating complex platform capabilities into clear value propositions for executives and non-technical stakeholders.

• Drive Product Improvement: Provide input to internal cross-functional teams on platform gaps, identifying which capabilities are harder to deploy and helping to widen the competitive advantage.

You're a great fit if

• You Thrive on Technical Challenges: You are a builder who enjoys pushing the boundaries of AI innovation and are comfortable digging deep into areas you are unfamiliar with to make it happen.

• You Obsess Over Outcomes: You demonstrate strong product intuition, understanding that the goal is not just software delivery, but tangible ROI and improved outcomes for patients and providers.

• You Bridge the Gap: You enjoy operating at the intersection of technical execution and strategic vision, inspiring innovation in the partners and leaders you build with.

• You have an Entrepreneurial Mindset: You look at yourself as an owner who likes to build and solve challenges others have yet to master, thriving in an autonomous, high-performance environment.
  

What we're looking for

• 5+ years of experience in Forward Deployed, Solutions, or Implementation Engineering roles with significant client-facing responsibility.

• Proficiency in TypeScript/Node.js for backend development and scripting. Experience with APIs (REST, gRPC), event-driven architectures, and cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP/Azure).

• Practical experience building with LLMs, including prompting, RAG, vector databases, and evaluation frameworks.

• Familiarity with healthcare data standards (HL7, FHIR, C-CDA) and workflows (Revenue Cycle, Access) is preferred.

• Ability to communicate technical concepts to a variety of audiences, from technical/IT teams to operational executives.

• This role offers a blend of in-office collaboration and travel. You’ll spend about 50% of your time meeting with customers and teams on-site, and we ask that you join us in the office three days a week to stay connected and work closely with your teammates.
