Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) - Remote
About The Position
The Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) is a hands-on engineering role focused on building and deploying AI-powered solutions within client environments. Working as part of client-facing delivery teams, this role partners with senior engineers and consulting leads to implement scalable, production-ready systems for healthcare payers and providers. FDEs contribute directly to solution delivery—translating defined requirements into working systems, building integrations, and supporting deployments. While primarily focused on engineering execution, the role also operates in client settings, requiring strong collaboration and the ability to support technical discussions with both engineering and business stakeholders. You’ll enjoy the flexibility to work remotely from anywhere within the U.S. as you take on some tough challenges. For all hires in the Minneapolis or Washington, D.C. area, you will be required to work in the office a minimum of four days per week.
