AI Engineer/Forward-Deployed Engineer

The AI Engineer / Forward Deployed Engineer is responsible for designing, building, integrating, and operating production-grade AI solutions that solve real business problems inside complex enterprise environments. The role combines hands-on software engineering, AI solution architecture, customer or business stakeholder engagement, and end-to-end delivery ownership.

Unlike a traditional AI or software engineering role focused only on internal product backlogs, this role works close to the operational problem. The engineer translates ambiguous business needs into deployed AI-enabled workflows, connects enterprise systems and data sources, validates output quality, and ensures solutions are reliable, secure, cost-effective, and adopted by users.

This position is ideal for an experienced Solutions Architect, Staff Engineer, or Technical Lead with a strong enterprise engineering background and a passion for applying it to AI-enabled systems. You’ll bring deep expertise across modern full-stack technologies (.NET, Azure, SQL, React/Angular), along with experience in distributed systems, observability, and AI tooling such as LLMs, retrieval pipelines, and agentic workflows. Acting as a bridge between business and technology, you’ll work across product, data science, architecture, and engineering teams—mentoring others, resolving production challenges, and scaling prototypes into robust, enterprise-grade solutions that deliver real impact.
