Forward Deployed Engineer

Forward Deployed EngineerHealthcare operations have always depended on people to bridge the gaps that technology couldn't. It relies on complex manual work to carry out critical internal processes, yet most health systems don't have enough resources to properly automate these tasks, leaving them stuck in outdated, labor-intensive SOPs. Luminai structures the chaos, automates the manual handoffs, and deploys end-to-end workflows across every system, providing the integrated intelligence layer to improve processes over time. By delegating to autonomous AI systems those mission-critical workflows that previously expended valuable human time, Luminai allows doctors and administrators to do what they do best: Focus on Patients. We've raised $60M in funding, including our recent Series B led by Peak XV Partners (formerly Sequoia India), with participation from healthcare-focused Define Ventures and continued support from General Catalyst and Y Combinator. We're backed by some of the best investors in Silicon Valley, including Kevin Weil (Chief Product Officer at OpenAI), Arash Ferdowsi (co-founder of Dropbox), Katie Stanton (former VP Global Media, Twitter), and CEOs of companies such as Flexport, Notion, Front, Ramp, and Twitch.Our team is in-office 4 days a week (Monday - Friday, Wednesday optional WFH) in either San Francisco, California or New York, New York.What You'll DoEmbed directly with customers to understand their workflows, constraints, and success criteriaDesign, build, and deploy AI-driven solutions tailored to real operational problemsBuild and maintain production systems including APIs, integrations, monitoring, and feedback loopsTranslate business requirements and customer needs into technical architectures and implementationsOperate in high-stakes environments where reliability, speed, and judgment matterIdentify patterns across customer deployments and feed insights back into core product and platform developmentPartner closely with Product and Engineering to influence roadmap, abstractions, and long-term system designOwn deployments end-to-end, from initial scoping through launch and iterationWhat We're Looking ForStrong proficiency in Python (TypeScript / JavaScript experience is a plus).Experience working with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure).Ability to translate ambiguous requirements into working, production-ready systems.Strong communication skills and comfort working with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.High ownership mindset with the ability to operate independently in fast-changing environments.Experience with AI systems (LLMs, vector databases, prompt engineering, or agent frameworks) is a strong plus.
