Forward Deployed Engineer
Solution Design & Architecture
Lead solution design for complex, cross-functional data and AI problems — from initial discovery through to technical blueprint. Define and communicate architecture decisions, trade-offs, and delivery approaches to both technical and non-technical audiences. Design scalable, modular systems that balance the need for speed with enterprise standards for reliability, security, and maintainability. Participate in architecture reviews, ensuring alignment with enterprise patterns and platform standards. Create clear technical documentation: architecture diagrams, data flow maps, API contracts, and solution briefs.
Rapid Prototyping & Solution Delivery
Design and deliver working prototypes for complex data and AI problems within compressed timeframes, often days to weeks. Translate ambiguous business requirements into concrete technical solutions with minimal hand-holding. Balance speed of delivery with enterprise standards — your prototypes are production-ready, not throwaway. Continuously iterate on solutions based on direct feedback from product managers, program leads, and end users. Develop intuitive front-end interfaces and dashboards that bring data and AI outputs to life for business users. Apply strong UX instincts to simplify complex flows and make agent outputs accessible and actionable for non-technical stakeholders.
AI Agent Development
Design, build, and deploy AI agents and multi-agent systems that automate complex workflows end-to-end. Develop and maintain agent skills — discrete, reusable capabilities that compose into larger agentic pipelines. Implement and extend Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and clients to connect AI agents with enterprise tools, APIs, and data sources. Design evaluation harnesses, guardrails, and monitoring pipelines to ensure agent reliability and safety in production. Stay current with the rapidly evolving agentic AI landscape and proactively introduce new techniques and tooling to the team. Integrate LLMs, RAG systems, and ML models into production workflows.
Collaboration & Stakeholder Engagement
Embed directly with product, program, and engineering teams to co-define problems and co-deliver solutions. Influence technical direction and build alignment across teams without relying on formal authority. Communicate complex technical concepts clearly to non-technical business stakeholders — in writing, in meetings, and in executive presentations. Mentor and elevate junior engineers, sharing patterns and practices for agentic development, prompt design, and rapid delivery. Foster a collaborative, low-ego team culture where speed and quality go hand in hand.
