Senior Forward Deployed Engineer

Senior Forward Deployed Engineer

Location: Any of these locations: Mountain View, CA/Los Angeles, CA/Boston, MA/Austin, TX/Phoenix, AZ Full Time (Hybrid)

Job Description: We need a full-stack engineer with 3–10 years of experience shipping production-grade software who thrives at the intersection of engineering, product thinking, and client engagement. You should be comfortable navigating ambiguity, working directly with healthcare executives, and owning outcomes end-to-end — from architecting scalable solutions to deploying them in complex enterprise environments. Bonus points if you have prior FDE experience (especially in healthcare), a non-traditional background that demonstrates grit, or entrepreneurial ventures that show initiative and ownership.

What you'll do:

• Serve as the acting technical lead on high-impact healthcare AI deployments, paired with another FDE, architecting and shipping production solutions used by thousands of clinicians
• Take ownership of activated revenue outcomes — accelerating contract timelines, identifying expansion opportunities, and driving products from 0→1→10→100
• Work directly with executives at billion-dollar health systems as a "field CTO," translating unstructured clinical and business problems into technical products
• Build full-stack applications (Python/FastAPI backend, React frontend) that integrate with EHR systems and process messy, non-standard healthcare data
• Rotate through engineering pods to gain platform-wide context, then lead deployments in specific customer segments or problem spaces
• Integrate field learnings back into core product — ensuring solutions built for individual clients become scalable platform capabilities rather than isolated oneoffs
• Travel up to 35% domestically to client sites for 1–2 day on-site visits during active deployment phases, building product intuition and stakeholder relationships
• 3 - 10 years of experience: in forward-deployed experience or client-facing, full-stack software engineering
• Visa sponsorship available Visa sponsorship is available for qualified candidates.

Hybrid work policy In-person at Mountain View, CA headquarters (hybrid flexibility possible after ramp-up period, ~3 days/week in office).
