We're working with a rapidly growing YC-backed AI technology company looking for a Swedish-speaking Forward Deployed Engineer to join its engineering team.

This is not a traditional implementation or solutions role. You'll remain highly hands-on technically while working directly with a Swedish customer, understanding their problems, translating those into technical requirements and helping build, integrate and deploy the product.

You'll work within a very small, high-performing engineering team where ownership, speed and technical ability are extremely important.

• Experience with React, Node.js, FastAPI, Django, Flask, PostgreSQL and cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP or Azure would be useful.
