About Blazity
At Blazity, we are a team of AI engineering experts building AI-powered products, intelligent agents, and modern digital experiences for enterprise clients worldwide.
We partner with ambitious organizations as trusted technology advisors, helping them design, build, and scale AI-powered products that solve real business problems.
We believe the best engineers combine deep technical expertise with business understanding. They don't just build softwareβthey help customers solve complex technical challenges, influence product direction, and deliver measurable business value.
We're looking for an exceptional Senior Forward Deployed AI Engineer who thrives at the intersection of software engineering, AI, consulting, and direct collaboration with enterprise customers.
This is a highly senior role for engineers who have experience delivering complex technical solutions, working closely with international customers, and operating as trusted technical advisors.
The ideal candidate has experience working in a Forward Deployed Engineering model or a similar highly technical customer-facing role, combined with the ability to operate effectively in fast-changing startup or scale-up environments.
About the Project
You'll join a long-term engagement for an innovative US-based AI company building enterprise AI software used by leading global organizations.
The product is built with Python on the backend and TypeScript/React on the frontend, leveraging modern AI technologies to deliver enterprise-grade AI solutions.
As part of a customer-facing engineering team, you'll work directly with enterprise customers to design AI architectures, solve complex technical challenges, lead implementation projects, and ensure successful adoption of AI solutions.
You'll collaborate with engineering leaders, architects, product teams, and business stakeholders while helping shape the future of the platform through customer feedback and real-world implementations.
This is an opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI technology while partnering with some of the world's most innovative organizations.
