Job description

Aventis Solutions is powering the next generation of AI and software innovation.

We're currently partnering with five venture-backed technology firms that are building some of the most ambitious software platforms in the US. From modern defence technology and government innovation to financial services, healthcare, critical infrastructure, and AI-first enterprise software, these organisations are solving complex, high impact problems with world class engineering teams.

Each business is entering a significant phase of growth, backed by strong investment, exceptional leadership, and a clear vision for the future. As they continue to scale, we're looking to connect with talented Forward Deployed Engineers who thrive at the intersection of software engineering, customer engagement, and real-world problem solving.

We're hiring across multiple levels, from ambitious early career engineers with 0-4 years of experience through to Senior, Principal, and Staff level professionals. Whether you're looking to accelerate your career or take ownership of large scale customer deployments, we'd love to hear from you.

• Salary Range: Highly competitive and dependent on experience, from 120k - 280k with opportunities available from Junior through to Staff and Principal level.
• Comprehensive benefits
• annual bonuses
• equity
• healthcare
• retirement plans
• Relocation support available depending on the organisation
• Locations: On-site opportunities across Chicago, Washington DC, Arlington, Virginia, Miami, Atlanta, Dallas, San Francisco, and New York. Relocation is expected for candidates outside these locations, with flexibility to explore the location that best aligns with your interests. One of these firms requires 2x days on-site, the others are 5x at least for the first few weeks, then they can flex.
• Career Outlook: Join some of the fastest-growing technology companies in the US, working alongside exceptional engineers and founders. These organisations offer genuine opportunities to progress into technical leadership, engineering management, solutions architecture, product leadership, or founding engineering teams as they continue to scale.

Key Experience and Skills Desired:

• Customer-Facing Engineering: Experience working closely with customers or internal stakeholders to understand complex business challenges and deliver high-quality technical solutions.
• AI and Emerging Technologies: Interest or experience working with modern AI tooling, large language models, intelligent automation, or AI-enabled software products. Exposure to GenAI frameworks and AI-powered applications is a significant advantage.
• Product Mindset: Comfortable working across the full software development lifecycle, contributing to product decisions, rapid prototyping, and iterative customer delivery.
• Problem Solving: Ability to tackle technically challenging problems, adapt quickly to new environments, and deliver practical solutions under real world conditions.
• Communication and Collaboration: Excellent interpersonal skills with the confidence to work directly alongside customers, senior stakeholders, product managers, and engineering teams.
• Growth Mindset: Passion for continuous learning, ownership, and building innovative software in fast-moving, high-performing environments.

This is an opportunity to join a new generation of technology companies that are redefining industries through exceptional software engineering and AI innovation.

Rather than just working behind the scenes, you'll become a trusted technical partner, helping customers solve meaningful problems while building scalable software that delivers measurable outcomes. Every engagement is different, offering exposure to complex technical challenges, cutting-edge technologies, and some of the brightest engineering talent in the industry.

We're recruiting across multiple organisations, each with its own mission, engineering culture, and technology stack. Whether you're passionate about national security, digital government, financial technology, healthcare innovation, or AI platforms, we'll work with you to identify the opportunity that best matches your background and career ambitions.

Full company profiles, technical stacks, and detailed job descriptions will be shared following an initial review of your CV, allowing us to match you with the organisations where you're most likely to thrive.
