Forward Deployed Engineer / Solutions Architect

$150k - $200k

Mixpeek

Forward Deployed Engineer / Solutions Architect

Sales remote full-time $150k–$200k + equity

You'll act as a forward-deployed engineer: designing architectures, writing POC code, and guiding customers to production with Mixpeek. You'll work with AdTech platforms and Media & Entertainment companies who are tired of managing 15+ tools to process multimodal data. The typical customer has spent 12-18 months building a DIY pipeline-you'll prototype indexing/retrieval pipelines using our Ray engine, then help them integrate into their environment. This is a founding role-you'll work directly with the founder and first customers.

Responsibilities
  • Own 2-3 lighthouse accounts end-to-end: from first technical discovery to production go-live
  • Design and implement POCs using Mixpeek's engine (Ray, Celery, Qdrant, MongoDB, ClickHouse, S3, Temporal) deployed on customers' cloud environments
  • Build POCs and demos tailored to specific customer use cases-AdTech targeting, video search, content moderation, etc.
  • Partner with AEs to understand what customers are actually trying to solve (not just what they say they want)
  • Translate messy, real-world workloads into clear requirements for the product/infra teams
  • Act as the feedback loop between customers and engineering-you'll influence the roadmap
  • Create technical documentation and reference architectures for common verticals
Requirements
  • 5+ years with background as an ML/data/infra engineer who enjoys working directly with customers
  • Comfortable writing production-adjacent Python and/or TypeScript to build POCs and reference integrations (not just diagrams)
  • Deep understanding of distributed systems, data pipelines, and cloud platforms (AWS strongly preferred)
  • Familiarity with MLOps, vector databases (ideally Qdrant), and workflow orchestration (Temporal, Airflow)
  • You can explain technical concepts to both CTOs and VP Eng-and know when to code vs. when to PowerPoint
  • Experience with AdTech, Media & Entertainment, or similar data-heavy verticals is a big plus
  • You're comfortable working across multiple customer engagements at once
Benefits
  • Competitive salary and meaningful equity
  • Remote-first work environment
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Learning and development budget
  • Home office setup allowance
