Forward Deployed EngineerTT
New York City, NY - USA
Job Summary
Location: United States (Remote)
Employment: Full-time Mid-Senior
Youll work in a customer-facing 0-to-1 environment solving live problems directly with customers rather than working through a ticket queue. This is for engineers who want to own outcomes end-to-end not just ship to spec.
What Youll Do
- Partner directly with customers to scope build and ship solutions from 0 to 1.
- Build fine-tune or deploy LLMs as part of real product workflows not just wrap an API.
- Move fluidly between engineering and customer problem-solving prioritizing live impact over backlog grooming.
Who Were Looking For
A mid-to-senior level engineer based in the US with a strong CS background (or proven self-taught depth) who has worked at a startup or top-tier tech company and has hands-on experience building or fine-tuning LLMs.
Required:
- Based in the United States (Remote).
- Experience at a startup or top-tier technology company.
- Shipped a product or feature from 0 to 1.
- Hands-on experience building fine-tuning or deploying LLMs beyond basic API calls.
Nice to have:
- Strong personal or side projects demonstrating deep technical ability.
- Degree from a top-tier Computer Science program.
Not a fit if you:
- Have only worked at large slow-moving enterprises.
- Have only maintained existing systems with no 0-to-1 build experience.
- Have no hands-on AI/LLM experience beyond basic API calls.
- Come from a purely back-office or internal tooling background.
