Forward Deployed Engineer


We’re hiring a Forward Deployed Engineer to join a category-defining, AI-native enterprise platform transforming how complex financial decisions are made.


Backed by significant late-stage venture funding, the company has scaled rapidly to a 150+ person team with a deeply technical engineering core, achieved multi-million dollar revenue within its first few years, and is already live in production with major enterprise customers. Well-capitalised, commercially proven, and positioned to define a new category in its market.


What You’ll Do

  • Lead 8–12+ week technical implementations
  • Write and push production backend code
  • Own API integrations and complex data workflows
  • Debug SQL, async services, and distributed systems
  • Work directly with customer engineering teams
  • Influence product roadmap from the field


High autonomy. High visibility. Real ownership. 

This is hands-on engineering in production, alongside customers.

You’ll sit at the intersection of product, engineering, and real-world deployment - shipping code that directly impacts underwriting and portfolio performance at some of the largest insurers in the world.


What We’re Looking For

  • Strong backend engineering fundamentals (Python, TypeScript, or similar)
  • Deep comfort with SQL (joins, aggregations, performance trade-offs)
  • Experience shipping production systems in B2B SaaS
  • API fluency: designing, debugging, integrating
  • Comfort reasoning about distributed systems and async behavior
  • Strong communication - you can explain technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders
  • You currently write code. Daily.


Compensation: $170,000 - $200,000

Remote (US/Canada)


If you want to build AI systems that actually make high-stakes decisions in the real world, let’s talk.
