Forward Deployed AI Engineer

We think you'd be great for this role if you:

Have spent 2-5+ years in roles like solutions engineering, software engineering, technical operations, internal tools, or automation in a fast-paced, dynamic environment. We’re looking for experience where you built real things, navigated ambiguity, juggled multiple priorities, and owned outcomes.

Are confident and thoughtful in conversations at all levels of an organization, able to quickly build trust and understand people's genuine needs. Client services experience is a plus.

Are genuinely excited about generative AI and have gotten your hands dirty building with it, whether that’s side projects, API experiments, vibe-coding with tools like Claude Code, Cursor, or Lovable, or stitching together workflows in Zapier, n8n, or Make. This is a hard requirement; we want to see what you’ve built.

Have a structured way of thinking about problems: you're great at framing messy questions, estimating the potential impact of solutions, and organizing your work clearly.

Are organized and proactive—you're good at managing your own projects, deadlines, and client communications in a fast-paced, small-team environment.

Bonus points (but not required!) if you have a formal software engineering background or have shipped production code, though we care more about what you’ve actually built than the credentials behind it.

Real Impact: You’ll have a direct influence on the trajectory of our company. Your work and ideas will shape how Melior operates and grows.

Accelerate AI Expertise: For our money, there’s no better way to accelerate your practical AI knowledge than to join Melior. You’ll go beyond theory to build real-world solutions clients use immediately.

Growth & Equity: Our business is growing rapidly, and we want you to share in our growth. As an early team member, you’ll have equity in the company and a clear pathway to grow into a leadership role

Variety and Depth: You'll explore different industries and tackle a wide range of interesting, practical problems. One week might involve content workflows at a marketing agency, another could be streamlining sales processes at a SaaS firm.

If you're excited about building practical AI solutions that genuinely help people do better work, we’d love to hear from you.

The target salary for this role is $100,000 - $150,000 per year.
