Founding Forward Deployed Engineer

My client is a fast growing, venture backed healthtech company redefining how life sciences organizations commercialize their products. They are building the commercial engine that allows pharmaceutical marketers to take control of their content supply chain, automating compliant, reference backed marketing at scale and replacing slow, manual workflows with AI powered systems deployed directly into production environments.

I am supporting them on a founding hire that will sit at the intersection of engineering, product and customer success, embedding directly with pharma customers and helping scale the next generation of commercial infrastructure.
Expectations of the Role:
Embed with major pharma and agency partners to deploy the platform into real world marketing workflows
Lead enterprise integrations across tools such as Veeva Promomats, Adobe, Figma and internal DAM systems
Design and customize AI powered compliance workflows to meet brand specific regulatory requirements
Deploy and optimize LLM and RAG based agents in production environments
Extend backend services and manage infrastructure across FastAPI, Celery, Redis and AWS
Build scalable data pipelines across PDFs, OCR, embeddings and metadata enrichment
Translate frontline customer feedback into product improvements and repeatable platform features
Work directly with the co founders on product strategy, technical direction and customer expansion
Requirements:
Strong engineering background with experience deploying enterprise grade systems
High proficiency in Python, FastAPI, Docker and AWS
Experience building or experimenting with LLM driven systems, RAG pipelines or agent based workflows
Customer oriented builder who cares about production impact, not just shipping code
Comfortable operating in ambiguity with high ownership and intensity
Strong communicator who can work with both technical and non technical stakeholders
Motivated by fast iteration, high standards and startup pace
What the company offers:
Backed by top tier investors with $25M+ raised and recent Series A close
Rapid growth with deployments across leading life sciences organizations
Opportunity to define the forward deployed engineering function from the ground up
Direct exposure to founders and influence over product roadmap
Medical insurance, relocation support and visa sponsorship options
If you are an engineer who wants to build at the edge of applied AI, work directly with customers and help define the infrastructure powering compliant pharma marketing, message me. I can share more detail and connect you directly with the founding team.
