Staff Forward Deployed Engineer

Staff Frontend Engineer – Forward Deployed | RemoteRemote working is available but candidates must be on Eastern Timezone either US or Canada. I'm partnering with a fast-growing, AI-native insurtech platform that connects specialty insurers with the capital behind them. They operate across more than 20 countries, are well backed, and are building small, high-leverage engineering squads designed for the AI era. They're now hiring a Staff Frontend Engineer into a forward deployed role. This person will sit at the intersection of engineering and customers. You'll work directly with the people using the platform, understand how they actually work, and ship software that changes how they make decisions.
