# Forward Deployed Engineer

Our client is a Lightspeed-backed AI holding company modernizing the architecture, engineering, and construction industry. The company acquires profitable engineering firms and embeds software teams directly with their operators to identify high-leverage workflows and ship applied-AI products. It has raised a $5M seed round, has $100M in acquisition capital, and is building a small, founder-minded team in New York. You will embed directly inside acquired engineering firms and own the complete arc from customer discovery to production deployment. This is a true forward-deployed engineering role: you will build software, develop trusted operator relationships, make product decisions from noisy feedback, and turn one firm's successful workflows into reusable platform capabilities. You will work on-site with acquired firms, own discovery through production iteration, build full-stack applied-AI products, lead working sessions with non-technical users, and mentor junior engineers. Requirements 5+ years of full-stack product-engineering experience, including genuine customer-facing or forward-deployed ownership. Demonstrated ability to own discovery, build, deployment, and iteration end
