This role is focused on Fund & Investment Operations, an integrated, AI-enabled platform delivering oversight of fund and investment operation, transparency into service provider performance and production engine for regulatory reporting, data management and compliance.

Position Summary

We are looking for a highly skilled and client-facing Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) to sit at the intersection of engineering excellence and customer partnership. In this role, you will embed directly with our most strategic clients — particularly in the financial services sector — to understand their toughest technical challenges and help them design and implement world-class solutions using our platform. This is a high-impact, high-visibility role with direct influence on product direction. You will bring the client’s data products to life and solve real problems that only surface when a platform meets production data.

You are equally comfortable whiteboarding microservices architecture with a client's principal engineer, running a hands-on technical workshop for a team of developers, and standing up a compelling proof-of-concept in days. You thrive in fast-moving, high-stakes environments and know how to earn the trust of deeply technical stakeholders.

Recruiting for this role ends on 10/31/2026.

Work you’ll do

• Serve as the primary technical point of contact for strategic client accounts, building deep relationships with architects, engineers, and technical leaders
• Lead discovery sessions to understand client architectures, pain points, and business objectives
• Translate complex functional concepts into clear, compelling narratives for both technical and non-technical audiences
• Look at trends in the market and experiment, bringing new ideas into the Product roadmap
• Collaborate with client architects and implementation teams to configure and publish data products
• Work hands-on with implementation teams to define data product structure including schema, ownership, SLAs, quality expectations, and governance attributes
• Independently structure and clean large-scale financial data and load into the tool’s models
• Enable implementation teams to self-serve data product creation over time and increase the configurability in the process
• Run office hours, enablement sessions, and targeted training to help teams build confidence independently
• Review and advise on client system designs, identifying risks and recommending best practices
• Experience coordinating across time zones and operating on a onshore, near shore, offshore model
• Produce high-quality technical documentation, runbooks, and integration guides
• Accelerate client time-to-value by enabling their teams to build confidently and independently
• Act as the voice of the customer — surface product gaps, integration friction, and feature requests to internal product and engineering teams

The successful candidate would possess these skills:

• Technical Stack: Strong proficiency in SQL, Python, bonus Java Springboot, ReactJS
• Understanding of data product concepts including schema design, data ownership, SLAs, quality frameworks, and governance
• Experience building LLM-powered agentic systems that use tools, execute multi-turn workflows, manage state, and recover from errors, with a strong understanding of token economics and how to optimize cost and latency across model calls.
• Hands-on experience with microservices design principles: service decomposition, API design, resiliency patterns, observability
• Experience working with structured data and unstructured data
• Experience with data governance, data cataloguing, metadata management platforms, and data quality validation frameworks
• Proficiency across multi-cloud environments, with AWS as a primary platform; working knowledge of Azure and GCP. Interest in staying current with the rapidly evolving AI/ML landscape and translating it into client-relevant use cases
• Exceptional communicator — able to lead technical conversations with senior engineers and C-suite stakeholders alike
• Strong facilitation skills for running workshops, design reviews, and working sessions
• Self-directed, pro-active, highly organized, and comfortable managing multiple client implementations simultaneously
• Natural curiosity and a bias for building — you'd rather spin up a demo than write a slide about one

Qualifications

Required:

• Bachelor's Degree in Engineering, Computer Science or equivalent field.
• 6+ years of software engineering experience, with significant time spent in client-facing, solutions engineering, or field engineering roles specifically in the Investment Management industry
• Ability to travel 20-25%, on average, based on the work you do and the clients and industries/sectors you serve.
• Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without the need for employer sponsorship, now or at any time in the future.

Preferred:

• Familiarity with concepts like AUM, NAV, positions/transactions, Reg Reporting or portfolio accounting is a strong plus, though not required to start.
• Familiarity with financial data platforms
• Experience with AWS-based data infrastructure (EMR, S3, Glue) or Snowflake
• Experience working in a start-up or product company with a strong sense of building reusable but configurable Products.
