We are hiring Forward Deployed Engineers to take new clinics from sales handoff to fully operational AI deployment. This is: Deeply technical, Extremely client-facing, High ownership, Production-critical. A pre-seed AI startup building real-time AI agents for private practices and specialty clinics. The platform automates appointment booking, rescheduling, prior authorization, and other high-friction workflows. Unlike research labs or post-training AI companies, this is a live production product operating inside real clinics today. The company operates like a high-speed, bespoke deployment team — think Palantir-style forward engineering in healthcare.

What You’ll Own
  • End-to-end clinic onboarding and deployment
  • Workflow discovery and automation mapping
  • Customization of AI agents (voice, OCR, computer-use)
  • Live production debugging under pressure
  • Weekly customer meetings during initial rollout
  • Modular code shipping that reduces integration time
  • Customer trust and clinical reliability

Must-Have Requirements
  • Strong Python (core daily skill)
  • Proven ability to ship production-ready code
  • Production debugging fluency under live pressure
  • Extreme high agency
  • Excellent client-facing communication skills
  • Top-tier engineering pedigree
