# Forward Deployed AI Technical Lead

Svitla Systems Inc. is looking for a Forward Deployed AI Technical Lead to join our Forward Deployed AI Engineering Pod, a small, senior team that works directly inside a client’s environment to take AI workflows into production, one workflow at a time. As the Technical Lead, you’ll be the technical owner of everything the Pod ships. You’ll design the architecture of each workflow, write the first code and keep writing it, lead a rotating bench of specialists (agent and MCP engineering, data, integration, document AI, evaluation, security, and more), and produce the evidence that each increment is truly done. This is one of the Pod’s three core roles that stay with the client for the entire engagement, so you’ll carry what you learn from one Pod to the next and help shape Svitla’s reusable AI engineering toolkit. Location: USA Employment Type: Full-time Requirements Experience designing and personally building production AI or ML systems that are still running, with the ability to walk through the architecture, trade-offs, and lessons learned. Hands-on experience with agentic systems in production, including orchestration frameworks (e.g., LangGraph or LangChain), tool and function
