Forward Deployed AI Engineer

JumpOff
3 hours ago
Full-time
On-site
Sandy Springs, Georgia, United States
About the role You build the AI systems our clients run on. You work inside the client’s own systems and data, next to their teams, and take a solution from first prototype to something in production that their people use every day. You report to our AI Engineering Lead and work alongside the people who own the business side of each engagement.

Most of your time goes to building: pipelines, integrations, LLM-based workflows and the testing and monitoring around them. Some of it is with clients, working out what their data and systems can support. Some of it goes into the shared tools we carry from one engagement to the next.

What you will do

Build and deploy AI solutions in client environments: data pipelines, integrations with client systems, LLM-based workflows and agents, and the applications people use them through

Work with client technical teams on access, environments and security

Test model output before it reaches users, and monitor it once it is live

Fix what breaks in production, and improve what you built based on how people use it

Turn one-off builds into reusable components for the next engagement

Document what you build so the client’s team can run it

Travel to client sites, up to about 30% of the time

Other duties as assigned

What you will learn here

Shipping AI into businesses with payrolls, customers and auditors, across many industries and many technology stacks

Scoping with the people who own the business outcome, so what you build is worth building

Frontier tooling in depth, across vendors, with certification supported

Engineering standards for production AI, from the people setting them

Who you work with Strategists, builders and operators from private equity, management consulting and technology, with backgrounds at companies like Boston Consulting Group, Palo Alto Networks, Microsoft, Meta and AbbVie. We use frontier models every day, on client work and on our own, we move quickly, and we say what we think. You work directly with the founder.

Low-ego, high-agency team players who are energized by the AI moment, thrive on delivering transformational results for our clients and navigating the rapidly expanding AI frontier from up close.

What this sets you up for Engineers who can make AI hold up in production and explain it to the people paying for it are rare, and will stay in demand. This role builds both, at the frontier and across industries. The role grows with what you show you can own.

Job Requirements* What you bring on day one

3+ years building and shipping software that people relied on in production

Strong Python and SQL

APIs and integrations: getting data out of one system, into another, and keeping the two in sync

Hands-on deployment on AWS, Azure or GCP

LLMs in production or close to it, with a habit of evaluating output before it reaches users

Daily use of coding agents, and the discipline to check what they produce

Clear explanations of technical choices for people who do not care how it was built

Discretion. You will see client data and firm-level information

Based in Atlanta and working from our Sandy Springs office, with client travel. Eligible to work in the US

Preferred

A customer-facing technical role: solutions, implementation or forward-deployed engineering

Startup experience, or something you built from zero

Microsoft or AWS data and AI services

Work with sensitive or regulated data, such as HIPAA, SOC 2 or financial data

Not required

An ML research or model-training background

Prior consulting experience

A computer science degree, where experience shows the equivalent
