Forward Deployed Engineer
About The Position
At Delphi, we are redefining how knowledge is shared by creating a new medium for human communication: interactive digital minds that people can talk to, learn from, and be guided by. The internet gave us static profiles and endless feeds. Delphi is something different: a living, interactive layer of identity. It carries your voice, perspective, and judgment into every conversation - so people don’t just read about you, they experience how you think. We're now making Delphi accessible to all - so that anyone can create a digital mind as an always-on profile that can answer questions on your behalf. Our mission is bold: Make human wisdom abundant, personalized, and discoverable. Preserve legacies, unlock opportunities, and scale brilliance across generations. Delphi becomes everyone's living profile to show what you know. We are trusted and loved by thousands of the world’s most brilliant minds from Simon Sinek to Arnold Schwarzenegger (interact with all of them here). We have tripled revenue, users, and Delphi interactions in the past 6 months - all organically through word of mouth. We plan to accelerate even further from here. Delphi’s investors include Sequoia Capital, Founders Fund, Abstract Ventures, Michael Ovitz, Gokul Rajaram, Olivia Wilde, and dozens of founders from Lyft, Zoom, Doordash, and many more. Our team includes founders with successful exits and builders from Apple, Spotify, Substack and more.

You're the engineer who makes our highest-value customers successful. Build, ship, and maintain enterprise features: embeds, SSO, API integrations, SMS/WhatsApp (Twilio), Slack, and CRM connectors (HubSpot, Salesforce, Kit). Act as the translation layer between engineering and the paid/enterprise side of the business. Know when to pull others in and when to just fix it yourself. Build net-new features for our enterprise arm, including API capabilities, embedding infrastructure, and monetization tooling. Who you are
Requirements
- Senior full stack engineer with 3+ years of experience. You've built and shipped real products, not just features inside a big org.
- Equally comfortable in TypeScript/React and backend systems. You can move across the stack without waiting for someone else.
- You think like a founder. You see a customer problem and your instinct is to solve it, not file a ticket.
Nice To Haves
- Customer-facing ability is a strong plus. You don't need to run sales calls, but you're not afraid to hop on one with a high-profile client when needed.
- Strong product judgment. You can evaluate 10 customer requests and know which 2 actually matter.
- Former technical founders are a great fit.
