Senior Forward Deployed Engineer

Department: Mongoose

Location: New York City

Employment Type: FullTime

At TriEdge Investments, we build technology that helps real businesses operate better. Working across a portfolio of 30+ companies and select partners, we embed with operators to design and ship automation that moves the numbers, including throughput, cost, and reliability. Over time, we turn those hard-won solutions into platform tools that scale across companies, building an intelligent system that brings modern automation to businesses typically overlooked by traditional software.

As a Senior Forward Deployed Software Engineer, you’ll be embedded with operators and clients, working in the field to uncover challenges and deliver mission-critical products. Unlike traditional engineering roles, you won’t just be handed a spec—you’ll work directly with users to shape requirements, design systems, and ship production code that solves real problems. You’ll combine deep technical expertise with client-facing problem solving, ensuring our products are pragmatic, scalable, and deliver meaningful business impact.

What You’ll Do

• Embed with operators and clients to diagnose workflows, pain points, and opportunities for automation

• Design, build, and deliver end-to-end systems across on-premises server, web, cloud, and data environments

• Develop robust APIs, agentic workflows, and AI/ML components that drive decision-making and automation

• Rapidly prototype, develop and iterate on solutions in client environments, ensuring adoption and impact

• Optimize systems for performance, scale, and resilience in production

• Collaborate cross-functionally with product managers, data engineers, and operators to align delivery with business outcomes

• Troubleshoot and resolve real-time production issues in client deployments

• Act as a trusted advisor to executives and operators while staying hands-on in code

About You

• 5+ years of full-stack software engineering experience in production environments

• Proven ability to deliver directly to clients in ambiguous, high-stakes settings

• Comfortable across the AI stack (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code, Vercel, Supabase, etc) and have proven experience in leveraging AI context engineering practice in small scale projects.

• Strong API development skills and experience with modern frameworks

• Practical experience integrating AI/ML systems into production products

• Clear communicator able to advise both engineers and business stakeholders directly

• Pragmatic problem solver with a bias toward ownership and forward deployed execution

• Resourceful when working across diverse stacks, legacy systems, or compliance-driven environments

• Appropriately fluent in AI-assisted development

Why Join TriEdge Investments

• Play a key role in reshaping private equity with AI-powered platforms that scale

• Help digitize and transform real businesses, not just build another SaaS product

• Be at the forefront of AI and automation across financial services and healthcare

• Work closely with operators and executives to deliver solutions that matter
