Forward Deployed Engineer

Theron Solutions

We are looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer with 3–8 years of experience to embed directly inside Fortune 500 customer environments and ship automations, agents, and workflows. This is a deeply technical, customer-facing role at an early-stage AI company with real enterprise traction.

Qualifications:

  • 3–8 years of professional experience.
  • Full‑stack engineering background with solid backend systems expertise
  • Proficient in Python or TypeScript/Node and have shipped customer‑facing production code .
  • Ability to translate technical constraints into business‑level decisions and run end‑to‑end customer conversations.
  • Familiarity with AWS (Lambda, ECS) and Docker .
  • Hands‑on experience building and deploying AI agents or workflow automations for enterprise customers.
  • Background at an early‑stage startup (seed‑Series C) or a large tech company
  • Must not be a pure solutions engineer (no coding ownership) or a pure data‑science/analytics profile, and should have stable employment history
  • Willing to travel 20‑25% (roughly one day per week), primarily domestic with occasional international trips.

What will you be doing?

  • Deploy inside enterprise customer environments and own automation delivery end-to-end from scoping through production rollout.
  • Build automations, AI agents, and workflows (ranging from simple programmatic automations to multi-step LLM agents)
  • Navigate stakeholder governance, implementation constraints, and permissioning requirements across customer orgs then translate those into engineering specs.
  • Feed signal back to the product team on how the platform performs in real customer environments

Our client is an Equal Opportunity Employer, committed to a workplace free from discrimination and harassment. Employment decisions are based on business needs, job requirements, and individual qualifications without regard to race, color, religion, gender, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, military service, genetic information, or any other status protected by law.
