Founding Forward Deployed Engineer

About the Role

Join an early-stage B2B SaaS team building AI-powered revenue workflows for enterprise customers. As a founding member of the deployment team, you will turn complex customer data into reliable models and production agent workflows that support measurable business outcomes.

What You'll Do

• Lead customer onboarding, assess data access, explore warehouse schemas, and map data to business concepts such as churn, expansion, and recurring revenue.

• Interview customer stakeholders, reconcile differing business definitions, and build a verified semantic layer using SQL.

• Deploy workflow and agent pipelines in customer environments, then monitor their performance and outcomes.

• Manage several customer engagements at a time, balancing direct collaboration with customer teams and hands-on data work.

• Use internal agent tools and share feedback to improve evaluations, validation, and agent development frameworks.

What We're Looking For

• Two to five years of experience in forward deployed engineering, data science, or customer-facing software engineering.

• Experience independently shipping production code or data systems and owning technical customer deployments end to end.

• Strong SQL and data warehouse skills, including the ability to navigate undocumented schemas and validate results.

• Experience with Python, dbt, data warehousing, LLMs, AI agents, signal engineering, or evaluation frameworks.

• Data science, machine learning, statistics, mathematics, or applied mathematics background, supported by relevant study or hands-on work.

• A quantitative STEM degree and experience in an early-stage, consulting, or otherwise scrappy environment.

• Comfort with detail-oriented data verification, customer-facing technical discussions, and adapting conclusions based on evidence.
