Forward Deployed Engineer

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. Originally posted on Himalayas
