Forward Deployed Engineer

The Role

You’ll be embedded with the business – working alongside portfolio managers, researchers and corporate teams – to identify, build and productionize AI solutions that take real work off their desks.

This is a high-impact, hands-on engineering position where you’ll contribute not just as an AI software engineer, but also as an AI strategist. You’ll work in a dynamic, fast-paced environment where product requirements evolve, and business stakeholders are deeply engaged.

We are growing this team through 2026 and expect to make several hires from this posting across both regions. We are hiring at Engineer through Senior Engineer level and will calibrate level, scope and compensation to your experience.
