Own the journey from idea to production.\nDarDoc is building a more connected healthcare experience, bringing digital and at-home care to people across the UAE. Our products serve customers, healthcare professionals, and the teams delivering care. Learn more about DarDoc.\nWe're hiring a Forward Deployed Engineer who combines strong engineering fundamentals, product judgment, and exceptional fluency with AI tools.\nSomeone who can understand a problem, decide what is worth building, and carry it through to a product people actually use.\nThe role\nYou'll work closely with our founders, engineers, and users to build and improve products across DarDoc.\nThe work spans customer-facing experiences, professional tools, commerce, partner platforms, data systems, and applied AI. You might take a new product from concept to launch, improve a critical customer journey, connect multiple services, or turn an emerging AI capability into a useful product feature.\nYou'll take ownership of a focused problem at a time, working across the layers needed to solve it. That includes discovery, technical design, implementation, testing, deployment, and iteration after launch.\nWe expect AI to be an integral part of how you engineer. You should be skilled at directing coding agents, providing context, reviewing changes, and validating results. You should also understand the systems you build well enough to debug them when the tools get something wrong.\nWhat you'll do\nTurn ambiguity into shipped products. Work directly with stakeholders and users to understand the need, challenge assumptions, define success, and deliver the smallest complete solution.\n\nBuild across the stack. Develop polished interfaces, backend services, APIs, database models, integrations, and background workflows.\n\nBring strong product taste. Care about information hierarchy, interaction design, responsiveness, accessibility, performance, and the details that make software feel intuitive.\n\nUse AI with technical judgment. Apply coding agents throughout development while taking responsibility for architecture, correctness, security, and maintainability.\n\nBuild useful AI capabilities. Identify where models, document processing, retrieval, or automation can create value. Evaluate their quality, cost, latency, and failure modes before release.\n\nMake systems work together. Design clear contracts, reliable data flows, and consistent behaviour across products and third-party services.\n\nOwn production outcomes. Write meaningful tests, investigate failures, improve observability, release carefully, and verify the actual user experience.\n\nConnect engineering to business impact. Measure whether your work improves adoption, conversion, reliability, efficiency, or the speed at which the team can deliver.\n\nWhat we're looking for\nA track record of building and shipping software used by real customers or teams.\n\nStrong full-stack engineering fundamentals and the ability to navigate unfamiliar codebases.\n\nPractical experience using AI coding tools such as Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, or equivalents to deliver substantial engineering work.\n\nThe ability to review generated code critically, identify flawed assumptions, and explain the implementation you ship.\n\nConfidence with APIs, authentication, relational databases, asynchronous workflows, and third-party integrations.\n\nGood judgment about state, permissions, retries, and data consistency when several systems interact.\n\nAn eye for product quality. You can recognise when a technically correct experience is still confusing or unfinished.\n\nClear communication with technical and non-technical people.\n\nIndependence, curiosity, and follow-through. You can move work forward, surface uncertainty early, and ask for help when it matters.\n\nExperience with React or Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, Python, PostgreSQL, and cloud deployments is relevant. We value depth in your core tools and the ability to learn the rest.\nExperience in healthcare, fintech, marketplaces, commerce, or other domains where software coordinates real-world services is helpful.\nHow we work\nSimple scales. Fancy fails.\nWe favour clear architecture, focused changes, and software people can understand and maintain. We expect you to question unnecessary complexity and choose the right tool for the problem.\nSpeed matters. So do visual quality, reliable data, and what happens after deployment. You should be comfortable moving quickly while recognising when sensitive information, financial transactions, or clinical workflows require additional care.\nYou'll have direct access to the people using your work, close collaboration with the founders, and meaningful ownership over both the solution and its results.\nWhat success looks like\nWithin your first few months, you've taken a meaningful problem from discovery to production, helped users adopt the solution, and demonstrated its impact. You understand how your work fits into the wider platform and can take on the next challenge with increasing independence.\nHow to apply\nShare your CV or LinkedIn profile and one or two examples of software you've shipped. Product links, repositories, short walkthroughs, and anonymised case studies are welcome.\nFor one example, tell us:\nWhat problem did you solve, and what did you personally own?\n\nWhat was the hardest product or engineering decision?\n\nHow did you use AI, and what did you have to correct or verify?\n\nWhat happened after launch?\n\nWe want to understand how you think, what you build, and how well it works in the real world.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5635,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Artificial Intelligence","Sports","Telemedicine & Virtual Care","Home Care Services"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-16T14:43:50Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":28,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":0.85,"p_active":0.595,"p_room":0.55,"age_days":26,"expected_fill_days":20,"reasons":["seen:26","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-10-13T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/dardoc-forward-deployed-engineer-ai-product-engineering","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/dardoc-forward-deployed-engineer-ai-product-engineering.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-13T13:29:59Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":20859,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-14T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":721976},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=721976"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fdardoc-forward-deployed-engineer-ai-product-engineering"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fdardoc-forward-deployed-engineer-ai-product-engineering"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fdardoc-forward-deployed-engineer-ai-product-engineering"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/dardoc-forward-deployed-engineer-ai-product-engineering\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fdardoc-forward-deployed-engineer-ai-product-engineering"}]}
