Forward Deployed Engineer

Department: Engineering

Location: San Francisco

Employment Type: FullTime

About the Role

This is a founding engineering position at an early-stage agentic integration platform serving the real economy. You'll own core systems end-to-end — agent platform, infrastructure, and integrations runtime — working directly alongside the founders to shape the entire product from the ground up.

What You'll Do

  • Own and evolve core systems end-to-end: agent orchestration platform, cloud infrastructure, and the integrations runtime.

  • Set the engineering patterns and architectural foundations that every future hire builds on.

  • Ship to production constantly, iterating rapidly alongside the founding team.

  • Help shape the overall system architecture and technical direction in your first year.

What We're Looking For

  • 2–9 years of hands-on software engineering experience, ideally at a high-growth or technically rigorous environment.

  • Strong proficiency in TypeScript; comfort across the stack including frontend (React) and backend services.

  • Experience with infrastructure and cloud platforms (AWS, Kubernetes) and production-grade systems.

  • Familiarity with durable execution patterns, agent orchestration, or integration platforms is a strong plus.

  • Comfortable working with PostgreSQL and modern runtimes (e.g. Bun, Effect-TS).

  • Self-directed and ownership-oriented — someone who thrives in an early-stage, high-autonomy environment.

  • Strong CS fundamentals and a track record of building and shipping reliable systems.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Salary: $150,000 – $250,000 USD annually

  • Visa sponsorship: Available

Location

On-site in San Francisco, CA.
