Forward-Deployed Engineer

About

• We're building the system of record for how the world uses AI.
• We sit in the path of how people actually work with AI tools, turn it into one clear picture across an org, and give companies the visibility and control to manage it.
• We're a small team that moves fast and ships things we're proud of.
• We care obsessively about taste, in product and in code.
• We're solving these hard problems.
• We're backed by YC, Peak XV, and operators who've built real companies.

The role

Most engineers build for a customer they've never met. You'd do the opposite. You'd be inside real enterprises, deploying Oximy across thousands of users, solving the messy problems that only show up in production at a company that's nothing like a demo.

This is some of the hardest and most satisfying engineering there is. MDM rollouts across Mac and Windows fleets. Proxy chaining through Zscaler. SSO and first-party API integrations. Browser extensions that have to survive whatever weird security stack a 50,000-person company runs. The kind of work where it either works in the real world or it doesn't, and you're the person who makes it work.

And because you're the one in the room when it breaks, you become our sharpest source of truth about what to build next. Forward-deployed engineers don't just ship the product, they shape it. You'll close the loop between what enterprises actually need and what we build, and that loop is how we win.

You will

• Own enterprise deployments end to end. From "they signed" to "thousands of their people are live and it just works."
• Solve the hard integration problems in the wild: MDM, proxy and network stacks, SSO, first-party APIs, extension rollout across locked-down fleets.
• Be the technical face to the customer. Sit with their security and IT teams, earn their trust, unblock them fast.
• Turn field reality into product. The thing that broke at one customer becomes the thing that never breaks again for the next hundred.
• Build tools that make the next deployment faster than the last. Every rollout should compound.
• Work shoulder to shoulder with the founders and core engineering, and ship fast.

Who you are

• 2+ years building real software, with enough range to debug across the stack and into someone else's network.
• You like the hard, real-world problems. Networks, auth, security stacks, the stuff that's never clean in production.
• You're great with people, not just systems. You can win over a skeptical enterprise IT team and explain a tradeoff without losing them.
• High agency. Dropped into a half-broken deployment with a customer waiting, you figure it out.
• AI-pilled. You use agents and tooling to move faster than your headcount should allow.
• Bonus: you've deployed into big, locked-down enterprises before and have the scar tissue to prove it.

What you get

You'd own the hardest, highest-leverage surface in the company, the place where the product meets the real world, working alongside a founder who was a partner at a Sam Altman-backed company and sold his first startup early. Enterprises are already deploying Oximy to thousands of users, so this is real from day one, not a someday promise. If you want to learn how enterprise software actually gets into the world, there's no better seat. Apart from that:

• Competitive salary and founding-team equity
• MacBook Pro
• Unlimited token budget. Use whatever you want, as much as you want.
• Health insurance and gym membership
• A healthy budget for tools, monitors, and anything you need to do your best work
