Forward Deployed Engineer

Job Description

### About the Role

A fast-moving, early-stage healthtech company is looking for a **Forward Deployed Engineer** to join their small, high-output team in Miami, FL. This company builds an integrated SaaS platform that helps healthcare groups --- including urgent cares and emergency departments --- automate and optimize staffing operations: payroll, scheduling, credentialing, performance tracking, and AI-powered clinical documentation.

In this role, you'll be customer-facing from day one, translating clinical and operational needs into shipped software. You'll work closely with customers on-site, travel frequently, and contribute across the full stack. New grads and early-career engineers (0--1 year of experience) are strongly encouraged to apply.

### What You'll Do

* Build and ship front-end and back-end features using **TypeScript, React, Deno, Node.js, and SQL**.

* Collaborate directly with customers --- clinical teams, medical directors, and operational staff --- to gather requirements and iterate on solutions.

* Deploy, operate, and troubleshoot production services on **AWS**.

* Travel frequently for on-site customer engagements and deployments.

* Contribute to product design and rapid prototyping; move ideas to shipped, reliable code quickly.

* Be a true generalist --- step up wherever the team needs you.

### What We're Looking For

**Required:**

* 0--1 years of professional software development experience (new grads welcome).

* Proficiency in full-stack TypeScript --- comfortable on both the frontend (React) and backend (Node.js / Deno).

* Working knowledge of SQL and cloud infrastructure (AWS).

* Strong written and verbal communication skills for customer-facing engineering work.

* Willingness to be based in Miami, FL (relocation from anywhere in the US is welcome).

* Willingness to travel frequently for customer engagements.

* Must be eligible to work in the US --- **visa sponsorship is not available**.

**Nice to Have:**

* Experience working in or alongside healthcare, clinical, or operational teams.

* Comfort operating in ambiguous, fast-paced early-stage environments.

* High emotional maturity and a collaborative, low-ego working style.

### Compensation \& Benefits

* **Base salary:** $70,000--$80,000 (slightly negotiable), with **total compensation target of $120,000--$150,000**.

* Total comp includes equity, covered travel expenses, and housing and transportation coverage during customer engagements.

* Opportunity to grow with an early-stage team and take on significant ownership quickly.

### Location

This is a **full-time, on-site role based in Miami, FL**. Candidates relocating from elsewhere in the US are welcome. The role involves frequent travel to customer sites across the US.
