Forward Deployed Engineer
About the role
Summary
We're seeking a Forward Deployed Engineer to be the bridge between our core engineering teams and our enterprise customers. You’ll design, implement, and deploy AI-powered solutions in complex, real-world environments—working directly with customers to tailor our technology to their most pressing challenges.
This is a hands-on, high-impact role for an engineer who enjoys solving open-ended problems, working autonomously, and seeing their work deliver immediate value to clients.
Responsibilities:
- Partner with enterprise customers to understand business goals, data landscapes, and technical constraints.
- Design and deploy agentic AI applications—integrating our core platform into customer systems and workflows.
- Collaborate with product and engineering teams to inform roadmap priorities based on customer insights.
- Build connectors, pipelines, and custom interfaces that help enterprise data flow securely and efficiently into our platform.
- Prototype and deliver new use cases using large language models, retrieval-augmented generation, and multi-agent orchestration.
- Act as a trusted technical advisor—supporting pilots, integrations, and scaled deployments.
- Help shape implementation best practices, documentation, and reusable frameworks to accelerate future customer success.
Qualifications
- 3–7 years of experience in software engineering, data engineering, or applied ML, ideally in a customer-facing or consulting capacity.
- Proficient in Python, TypeScript, or similar languages; experience working with APIs, cloud infrastructure, and data processing.
- Comfortable working directly with enterprise customers, including C-suite and technical stakeholders.
- Strong problem solver who thrives in ambiguous, fast-moving startup environments.
- Experience with AI technologies (LLMs, RAG, embeddings, vector databases) is a major plus.
- Bonus: prior experience at an AI, data, or B2B SaaS company, or as a solutions engineer or implementation specialist.
Preferred Qualifications
- Familiarity with multimodal content generation and document processing.
- Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and MLOps tools.
- Experience with API design and integration for AI services.
What We Offer
- Opportunity to shape the future of AI-driven content creation
- Work with data from leading organizations
- Meaningful Equity participation
- Remote work arrangement
About Us

About Capitol AI
Capitol builds intelligence infrastructure for companies overwhelmed by data but starved for clarity. Today, 80% of enterprise AI projects fail because outputs aren’t accurate, attributable, or usable. Capitol AI works with companies in high-stakes industries to turn information into intelligence that drives decisions with model-agnostic, purpose-built infrastructure.
Capitol is building a different future - one where institutions, creators, and analysts stay in control of their knowledge, their IP, and their value. We deliver a model-agnostic platform that turns complexity into decision-grade insight. We don’t believe the future should be dictated by a handful of closed models. We enforce attribution, minimize hallucinations, and preserve temporal accuracy - giving companies trusted answers they can act on.
Our Vision
Agentic AI for every enterprise - model agnostic, embedded, governed, and decision-grade - built to power action and impact at scale.
