You'll work directly with top-10 pharma companies to understand how AI can transform medical workflows-this is high-impact, high-visibility work.\nEnd-to-End Ownership\nOwn major parts of the stack, shape technical architecture, and influence product direction from day one.\nEarly Stage, High Growth\nWe're small and moving fast. You’ll help shape both the technology and the culture as we scale.\nTech Meets Trust\nDesign AI-native workflows that scientific and medical teams trust and depend on daily.\nClear Growth Path\nOpportunity to grow into a Lead Frontend or Fullstack Tech Lead role as we expand the engineering team.\nWhat we offer\nHealth & wellness support - Stipend + medical (vision, dental, health) insurance coverage\nUnlimited PTO - Recharge when you need to\nCommunication Test (est. time 5-10 min)\nInstead of a traditional cover letter and resume, we’d like you to complete a short task to show how you work:\nStep 1\nUse an AI tool (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc.) to generate 3-5 short, fake customer interaction notes.\nThese should look like quick snippets from a customer support chat (e.g., a frustrated user, a neutral inquiry, a positive message).\nStep 2\nUsing the same AI tool, create:\n1. A simple checklist-style sentiment rubric\nThis should include:\nThe sentiment categories you choose (e.g., Positive, Neutral, Negative).\n\nShort definitions for each category.\n\n1-2 criteria the evaluator/model should look for.\n\n2. A short description (1-2 paragraphs) explaining:\nHow you used the AI tool.\n\nWhat prompts you wrote.\n\nAny challenges you encountered (e.g., model over-explaining, unclear sentiment boundaries).\n\nStep 3\nSend us your:\nCustomer interaction notes\n\nSentiment rubric (checklist)\n\nLLM usage notes\n\nThese can be in a Google Doc, Word Doc, or PDF.","description_format":"text","description_chars":6927,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":2,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Insurance coverage","Unlimited PTO"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Artificial Intelligence","Biotechnology","Venture Capital"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2025-11-29T17:13:53Z"},{"event":"reopen","at":"2026-10-14T00:16:54Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":16,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.449,"p_room":0.36,"age_days":326,"expected_fill_days":173,"reasons":["conf:2","win:tail","crowd:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-10-22T06:10:10Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/pear-vc-forward-deployed-engineer-ai-solutions-atrix","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/pear-vc-forward-deployed-engineer-ai-solutions-atrix.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-22T20:47:08Z","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":4942,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-23T00:00:00Z"}},"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":6218},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=6218"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fpear-vc-forward-deployed-engineer-ai-solutions-atrix"},{"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%2Fpear-vc-forward-deployed-engineer-ai-solutions-atrix"},{"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%2Fpear-vc-forward-deployed-engineer-ai-solutions-atrix"},{"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/pear-vc-forward-deployed-engineer-ai-solutions-atrix\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fpear-vc-forward-deployed-engineer-ai-solutions-atrix"}]}
