FORWARD DEPLOYED ENGINEER
About H: H exists to push the boundaries of superintelligence with agentic AI. By automating complex, multi-step tasks typically performed by humans, AI agents will help unlock full human potential.
H is hiring the world’s best AI and engineering talent, seeking those who are dedicated as much to building safely and responsibly as to advancing disruptive agentic capabilities. We promote a mindset of openness, learning and collaboration, where everyone has something to contribute.
Holistic, Humanist, Humble.
About the Team: The Forward Deployed Team is committed to ensuring the successful implementation of our Agents to help our customer automate and optimize tasks, and allow them to focus on what really matters. The team is also responsible to shape the future vision of our products by distilling learnings from the field into the H platform.
That platform empowers a wide range of professionals and businesses to safely, easily and autonomously deploy agents at scale for a broad range of tasks: from ensuring websites behave as expected to automating repeated tasks.
Key Responsibilities:
Understand and identify customer’s most important and impactful multi-step task to automate
Seamlessly integrate with customer systems, including but not limited to databases, third-party APIs, and internal tools, etc.
Rapidly iterate in the field with tight feedback loops to continuously improve product fit and drive end-to-end solution delivery
Architect, build, and maintain production-grade services that scale with usage and complexity
Collaborate closely with product, research, and engineering teams to shape the roadmap and align on priorities based on findings in the field
Requirements:
3+ years of professional software engineering experience, ideally in fast-paced environments (e.g., startups, consulting, or product teams), or otherwise proven technical acumen through projects and past experiences
Experience working with AI/ML systems, especially integrating LLMs or other agentic workflows into real products
Fluency in at least one backend language (e.g., Python, Go, Node.js, Java) in addition to English ;-)
Familiarity with frontend frameworks (e.g., React, Vue) and a good sense of UI/UX tradeoffs
Experience building and deploying production systems—APIs, services, infrastructure, and/or data pipelines
Proficiency in integrating third-party APIs, databases, and external systems in a secure and reliable way
Strong problem-solving skills and ability to thrive in ambiguous, customer-facing environments
Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal
Bias for action—able to ship quickly, iterate fast, and own the full lifecycle of solutions
Willingness to travel for on-site deployments or customer engagements
