About the Role
We're looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer who can work directly at the intersection of technology and business — embedding with stakeholders, understanding their real-world problems, and translating ambiguous requirements into working solutions. This is a hands-on, client-facing engineering role where technical depth meets strong communication and business acumen.
What You'll Do
  • Work directly with stakeholders and end clients to gather, interpret, and refine requirements — often starting from ambiguous or loosely defined problems
  • Translate business needs into technical solutions quickly, iterating in close collaboration with the client
  • Build, prototype, and deploy solutions using Python and SQL to solve real operational and analytical problems
  • Apply modern AI tools (LLM-based copilots, agentic frameworks, prompt-driven automation, etc.) to accelerate development and enhance solution capabilities
  • Troubleshoot issues on the ground, think critically under pressure, and drive problems to resolution independently
  • Clearly communicate technical concepts, trade-offs, and progress to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Act as the technical face of the team in front of clients — building trust through clarity, responsiveness, and follow-through
What We're Looking For
  • Requirement comprehension: Ability to quickly grasp what stakeholders actually need, even when it isn't clearly articulated, and turn it into an actionable plan
  • Stakeholder engagement: Comfortable working directly with clients/business stakeholders, not just through intermediaries
  • Communication: Strong verbal and written communication with clear, confident articulation of ideas and technical topics
  • Problem-solving: Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills; able to break down complex or unclear problems into solvable pieces
  • Programming: Proficiency in at least one programming language, Python strongly preferred
  • SQL: Solid, hands-on SQL skills — writing, optimizing, and reasoning about queries against real datasets
  • AI tooling: Practical, hands-on experience with at least one modern AI tool (e.g., Copilot-style coding assistants, LLM APIs, agentic tools, or similar)
Nice to Have

  • Prior experience in a client-facing or consulting-style engineering role
  • Experience working in fast-paced, ambiguous environments with shifting priorities
