Forward Deployed Engineer - YC | $150K - $225K + Equity | Onsite in SF

We're partnering with a YC-backed startup that's reimagining a $100B+ legacy industry using LLMs, workflow automation, and applied AI. Fresh off their $8M seed round and already writing over $6M in annualized premiums across 35 states, they’re building a fully autonomous AI-native commercial insurance brokerage.

They’ve built internal agent systems that already replace core brokerage workflows - form automation, carrier selection, and client comms - and they’re only just getting started. The vision? A self-scaling, infinitely efficient AI business that dominates a market still running on PDFs and fax machines.

About the role :

This is a unique chance to join as a Forward Deployed Engineer , working directly with clients to solve high-leverage problems using real-world AI systems. You’ll sit at the intersection of full-stack engineering, AI integration, and product delivery - shipping fast, owning outcomes, and iterating in tight feedback loops with founders.

You'll own :

  • End-to-end delivery of AI-driven features for customers
  • Translating vague specs into intelligent automation systems
  • Deploying agentic workflows that drive revenue and efficiency
  • Building products in Python, TypeScript, LangChain, Postgres, Supabase, AWS, etc.

You might be a fit if :

  • You’ve worked in a startup or FDE-type role (0-1 builds, client-facing exposure)
  • You’re fluent in full-stack software and have shipped production LLM systems
  • You can balance speed and precision, and you’re obsessed with outcomes
  • You’re excited about applying AI to real-world workflows, not just model outputs
  • Why join?

  • This isn’t just building tooling - it’s reinventing a massive, broken industry
  • You’ll be one of the earliest engineers shaping the future of AI-native businesses
  • High agency, fast pace, no fluff - just shipping value with serious upside
  • This is a full-time, in-person role in San Francisco. Visa support is available for the right candidate.

    Interested? Drop us a message - we’ll share more about the role, team, and interview process.
