About The Position

The Forward Deployed Engineer is an embedded member of the trial team, delivering the technical solutions assigned studies need. You build the study across the Citrus ecosystem, set up and manage its integrations and data pipelines, and help produce the databases, data, and artifacts a trial depends on, accurate and compliant. This is a technical role. You write code, build the automation and tooling that keep quality high, and take part in the fire team, with platform work done under software engineering oversight. Trial delivery is the priority and the technical work serves it.

Driven to understand and solve problems, and comfortable collaborating across technical and non-technical teams
Able to prioritize effectively and keep track of several things at once without letting them slip
