Forward Deployed Engineer at Sim, a 10-person San Francisco startup building a platform for teams to create agents, works directly with customers to turn their workflows into production agents — owning deployments end to end, building integrations, and shipping agents and evals, with field feedback shaping the product.
Our mission is to automate knowledge work.
Sim is a platform to build autonomous AI agents for enterprise systems. Teams connect their integrations and Sim builds a knowledge graph of company data and processes; from there, they work with Sim to build and monitor the AI agents and workflows that run production systems.
Sim is talent-dense. We're looking for special people who are mission-driven, passionate, and creative.
We're a team of 10 working full-time, in person in San Francisco. We have a flat organization: you'll work directly with the founders and own your work from idea to execution. We sponsor visas.
About the Role
You'll work directly with customers to turn their workflows into agents that run in production. You'll own deployments end to end: developing a deep understanding of their problems, building integrations, shipping agents and evals, and engineering systems for continuous improvement. Your experience on the front lines will shape Sim's product direction: identifying recurring challenges, translating production feedback into platform capabilities, and informing what we build next.
You may be a fit if
You can build useful software, work through unfamiliar systems, and explain technical decisions clearly.
You enjoy working with customers and taking a project from the first conversation to production.
New graduates are welcome. We care about what you can do; projects, internships, and independent work count.
Compensation
$190K–$250K base plus a 0.25%–0.4% equity grant.
Applying
If there appears to be a fit, we'll reach out to schedule 1-2 short technicals. After, we'll schedule an onsite in our office, where you'll work on a small project, discuss ideas, and meet the team.
