The Role

Forward Deployed Software Engineers (FDSEs) work directly with customers to quickly understand their greatest problems and design and implement solutions using data.

Experience or curiosity about working with and using large scale data to take on valuable business problems.
Ability to collaborate efficiently in teams of technical and non-technical individuals, and comfortable working in a dynamic environment with evolving objectives and iteration with users.

What We Require

1+ years of relevant, post-college work experience.
Strong engineering background, preferred in fields such as Computer Science, Mathematics, Software Engineering, Physics, and Data Science.
Strong coder with shown proficiency in programming languages such as Python, Java, C++, TypeScript/JavaScript, or similar.
Ability and interest to travel up to 25%, as needed to client sites, but flexible based on personal preferences.
