TheTop builds TheEngine, an AI product for companies that want clear, cost-efficient and well-governed use of AI. Our core team builds a high-quality, flexible product.
Now we’re launching a Forward Deployed Engineering team, with one engineer already on board. Customers increasingly want an expert who sets the product up inside their company instead of figuring it out alone. That’s where the market is going, and we’re building for it.
What you’ll do
Own the product for your customers end to end as an Applied AI Engineer: about 90% backend, 10% or less frontend (simple and easy to customise)
Deploy and adapt TheEngine to each customer’s setup and needs
Talk to customers, understand their business, and turn it into working solutions
Work with the core team on how to make the product better, more flexible and easier to deliver and customise
Code as much as before, or more, with AI agents doing a lot of the typing
You won’t be alone: every FDE works with a product partner from our team.
What matters to us
3+ years of commercial engineering experience (Python)
Fluent technical English and conversational English good enough for customer calls
Availability until 3–4 PM US Eastern Time
You understand the business side, not only the code, and you get corporate and US business culture
Independence and an entrepreneurial attitude
Easy to talk to and enjoy working with people
You love IT and AI, not just the paycheck
You want to go deeper into the product, learn new things and talk to people a bit more than before
Nice to have
Past experience as an IT entrepreneur or founder
