Our technology serves Fortune 500 leaders across manufacturing, field services, and utilities. Companies such as PepsiCo, Continental Tire, and Tenneco use Squint to capture and activate their essential tribal knowledge, standards docs, and OT data into procedures, orchestrated work, and context for AI agents to act on.\nSome things to know about us:\nWe are obsessed with our customers, and they’ll tell you so themselves.\n\nWe raised a $40M Series B in 2025, backed by elite investors including Sequoia Capital, Menlo Ventures, TCV and The Westly Group.\n\nFast Company named us to their Most Innovative Companies list in 2025 and 2026.\n\nWe were named to Built In’s Best Startups to Work for in SF list.\n\nRead more about us in Upstarts Media, Fortune, Forbes, and more.\n\nAbout the Role\nWe're hiring a Deployment Engineer to be Squint's technical bridge between our platform and the real world: the factory floors, job sites, and utility yards where our customers actually work.\nThis isn't a configuration job. Our customers' environments are messy and industrial - legacy systems, spotty connectivity, workers in the field wearing AR headsets instead of sitting at a desk. You'll write real production code to make Squint's knowledge graph and AI workflows work in that environment, for that customer, this week.\nYou'll work closely with our founding engineering team, embedding directly with named accounts to turn ambiguous operational problems into shipped, working deployments.\nWhat You’ll Do\nYou'll be the engineer accountable for getting Squint live at a customer site and proving out its value. You will:\nOwn deployments end-to-end: From kickoff to go-live, you'll be the engineer accountable for getting Squint live and delivering value at a customer site - no handoffs, no hiding behind a ticket queue.\n\nBuild, don't just configure: You'll write production code - integrations, custom workflows, data pipelines - to adapt Squint to each customer's systems, equipment, and terminology.\n\nGo where the work is: You'll spend time on factory floors and in the field, watching how frontline teams actually work, so you can build something they'll actually use.\n\nClose the loop with product: Every deployment teaches us something. You'll turn field learnings into clear, prioritized feedback that shapes Squint's core roadmap.\n\nEarn trust at every level: From the frontline operator to the plant manager to the exec sponsor, you'll be the person customers count on to make Squint work.\n\nAbout you\nYou're comfortable being handed an ambiguous, half-defined problem and turning it into a working system.\n\nYou communicate as well with a maintenance technician on a factory floor as you do with a VP of Operations.\n\nYou're energized, not drained, by travel and time on-site - expect meaningful travel in this role.\n\nWhat You’ll Bring\n3+ years of hands-on software engineering experience - full-stack, backend, or infrastructure - with a track record of shipping production code.\n\nExperience working directly with customers or embedded in a customer's environment (consulting, forward-deployed, or startup implementation experience is a strong plus).\n\nComfort with ambiguity and a bias toward action over process.\n\nGenuine interest in industrial operations - manufacturing, field services, or utilities experience is a differentiator, not a requirement.\n\nBenefits\nBased out of our office in San Francisco, we love the energy of in-person collaboration.\nCompetitive Salary and Equity\n\nComprehensive Medical, Vision, and Dental care\n\nFlexible PTO Policy\n\nLunch and Dinner Service\n\nWellness Benefit\n\nMaven Family Planning Benefits\n\nPartnership with Care.com\n\nMental Health Services\n\n401(k) Retirement Plan\n\nPre-Tax Commuter Benefit for Parking & Public Transit\n\nCompany-wide Retreats\n\nSubsidized Uber to and from the office\n\nA Final Note\nWe are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace. Squint is an equal opportunity employer, welcoming applicants from all backgrounds without regard to race, gender, age, or any other protected characteristic. We encourage you to apply even if you're not quite sure you fit all the requirements for the role!\nReady to redefine the future? Join us at Squint and be a part of something revolutionary.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4381,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":3,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Retirement plans"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Artificial Intelligence","Corporate Training","Petroleum & Mining Engineering"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-06T07:20:39Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 7","filings_12m":7,"filings_prev_12m":2,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":172500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-15T11:24:14+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":5}],"liveness":{"score":20,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.559,"p_room":0.36,"age_days":85,"expected_fill_days":49,"reasons":["conf:0","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-24T06:02:35Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":220000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/squint-deployment-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/squint-deployment-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-24T15:04:45Z","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":20710,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-25T00:00:00Z"}},"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":171934},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=171934"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fsquint-deployment-engineer"},{"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%2Fsquint-deployment-engineer"},{"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%2Fsquint-deployment-engineer"},{"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/squint-deployment-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fsquint-deployment-engineer"}]}
