AI Forward Deployed Engineer - Build Real World AI Systems

You will be a founding level builder working directly with clients to design, architect, and deploy production grade AI systems from day one.

This is a high ownership opportunity to operate at the intersection of engineering, strategy, and product, helping organizations translate abstract AI ambitions into real systems that deliver measurable business impact. You will function less like a traditional engineer and more like a startup founder embedded within each engagement, defining problems, shaping solutions, and driving delivery from concept through launch.

In this role, you will design and implement end to end AI solutions, build scalable architectures, and deploy cloud native systems that support real world workflows. Your work may include LLM integrations, document processing pipelines, vision systems, and modern backend platforms, with reliability, performance, and maintainability treated as first class priorities.

This role is intentionally designed for builders who want founding style impact without needing to start their own company. You will be trusted to make decisions, operate in ambiguity, and take ownership of systems that directly influence how organizations adopt and scale AI.

If you enjoy building from zero, shaping technical direction, and turning undefined challenges into shipped products, this is the role for you.
