We are hiring a Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) to own end-to-end deployments of our models within healthcare organizations, including payers, providers, health systems, and healthcare technology companies. You will lead technical discovery, architecture, implementation, evaluation, productionization, and handoff, translating complex customer workflows, data, infrastructure, and regulatory constraints into production AI systems.
This role is based New York City. We use a hybrid work model of 3 days in the office per week. We offer relocation assistance. Travel up to 50% is required.
Own the technical solution end to end, from customer discovery and workflow scoping through architecture, hands-on implementation, evaluation, production deployment, adoption, and handoff.
Partner credibly with customer engineers, operators, and domain experts to frame ambiguous problems, define scope, and translate payer, provider, or health-system workflows into technical requirements and measurable outcomes.
Design and implement production AI applications and agentic systems that integrate with customer infrastructure, enterprise APIs, data platforms, electronic health records, claims systems, and operational tools.
Build with appropriate safeguards for protected health information (PHI), HIPAA, privacy, security, authorization, governance, auditability, and other regulated-delivery requirements.
Define and operationalize evaluations, validation evidence, human-review workflows, escalation paths, and launch criteria that measure model and system quality against customer-specific acceptance thresholds.
Use evaluation results, error analysis, observability, and customer feedback to improve system reliability, performance, model selection, workflow impact, and production readiness.
Distill deployment learnings into reference architectures, interoperability and integration patterns, evaluation harnesses, security controls, and reusable technical primitives for healthcare and other regulated enterprise environments.
You might thrive in this role if you
Bring 6+ years of software engineering, ML/AI engineering, solutions engineering, technical consulting, or comparable experience, with the technical depth
