Forward deployed engineer

Alexander Chapman

Job Description

What if the technology you built could actually save lives?

I'm partnering with an exceptional, fast-growing Series B startup , backed by Lightspeed Venture Partners and Insight Partners , that's transforming how some of the world's largest industrial companies approach workplace safety.

They're building cutting-edge technology at the intersection of AI, computer vision, and real-world engineering , helping companies identify risks and prevent accidents before they happen.

Why this opportunity stands out:

  • True end-to-end ownership: Work directly with customers, solve complex technical challenges, and see your solutions deployed in real-world environments.
  • Meaningful technical challenges: Build across software, AI, and computer vision, with the freedom to influence both the product and its direction.
  • High-impact environment: Join a talented, ambitious engineering team where your ideas matter and your contributions have immediate visibility.
  • A mission worth building for: Work on technology that's already making a tangible difference in protecting workers worldwide.

The ideal candidate? A strong software engineer who enjoys being hands-on, working closely with customers, and taking ownership of challenging problems from concept to deployment.

If you've been looking to move into a high-growth startup where you can build, own, and make a genuine impact , this is an opportunity worth exploring.

Location: NYC | Hybrid
