But there is a massive problem: the legacy players (the Accentures and Wipros of the world) are failing to adapt. They are still selling armies of consultants and glacial timelines in a world that demands speed.\nEnter Turgon.\nWe are the world’s first Agentic IT Modernization platform. We don’t just \"do AI\" by adding chatbots to broken systems. We solve enterprise problems at the root: the data and systems level. By combining elite forward-deployed engineers with our proprietary AI Agent Swarms, we map, document, and modernize massive legacy infrastructures in days, not quarters.\nWe are turning CIOs back into strategic builders and ensuring IT infrastructure can finally transform at the speed of AI. We are looking for builders who are ready to reject the legacy consulting model and help us architect the future of the enterprise.\nAbout the Role\nWe are looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer to sit at the intersection of our product, engineering, and customer-facing teams. This is a role for someone who is as comfortable in a customer conversation as they are in a codebase.\nAt Turgon, our AI agents handle the heavy lifting - but great enterprise software still requires a human who deeply understands the customer's world, can bridge the gap when automation hits its limits, and can translate messy real-world requirements into clean technical solutions. That's you. You will be the person customers trust, the person our delivery leads rely on, and the person our product team turns to when they need ground-truth signals from the field.\nThis role is ideal for someone who thrives in ambiguity, moves fast, and genuinely enjoys working across the full spectrum from whiteboard to deployment.\nResponsibilities\nBuild and Deliver: Own the last-mile execution of customer deployments - configuring, coding, customizing, and troubleshooting our AI solutions to ensure they work reliably in the customer's specific environment, data landscape, and workflows.\nHuman-in-the-Loop Operations: Serve as the intelligent backstop when our AI agents require human judgment, review, or escalation. Identify patterns in these interventions and feed them back to the product and engineering teams to continuously reduce manual effort over time.\n Product Feedback Loop: Act as the voice of the customer inside Turgon. Synthesize customer pain points, edge cases, and feature requests into crisp, actionable briefs for the Product and Engineering teams. You will directly influence the product roadmap.\nRequirements\n7+ years of engineering or technical experience, with meaningful exposure to customer-facing or implementation work.\nStrong technical foundation - you can code, understand how LLM-based systems work at a practical level, build your own agents, and have basic data engineering skills.\nExcellent communication skills: you can explain a complex technical constraint to a non-technical stakeholder without breaking a sweat, and then turn around and write a precise bug report for an engineer.\nExperience working in data lakes, data warehouses (Snowflake, Databricks, etc), ERPs, and other similar systems of record. \nComfortable with ambiguity and the pace of an early-stage startup - you can context-switch between a customer escalation, a product scoping session, and a sales call in the same day.\nNice-to-Have Skills\nPrior experience in a Forward Deployed Engineer or Solutions Engineer role at a B2B SaaS or AI company.\nHands-on experience with LLM tooling (LangChain, LangGraph, RAG pipelines, vector databases).\nExperience supporting or closing enterprise sales cycles in a technical capacity.\nEducation\nWe don't actually care about qualifications as long as you are a sharp, customer-obsessed problem solver who wants to keep learning and make a massive impact.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3909,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":7,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["AI Consulting & Integration","Enterprise Apps Implementation Partners"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-12T05:26:33Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":6,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.205,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":249,"expected_fill_days":35,"reasons":["conf:3","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-11-03T05:54:40Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/turgon-forward-deployed-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/turgon-forward-deployed-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-04T00:07:05Z","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":163,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-05T00:00:00Z"}},"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":689545},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=689545"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fturgon-forward-deployed-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%2Fturgon-forward-deployed-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%2Fturgon-forward-deployed-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/turgon-forward-deployed-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fturgon-forward-deployed-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":796050}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"turgon.ai","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":796050},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
