Description For Forward Deployed Engineer

Strada is reimagining how people interact with insurance companies through voice-first AI agents. We're transforming clunky phone experiences into efficient, human-like conversations.

Our AI agents handle real customer interactions daily - from quotes and payments to policy renewals and problem-solving. We combine LLMs with insurance-specific data to deliver measurable outcomes. We're already partnered with major carriers and brokerages, demonstrating real impact through shorter call times and improved customer satisfaction.

As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you'll be instrumental in bringing our AI technology to life. You'll work directly with insurance carriers and brokerages to understand their needs, design and implement voice agents, and ensure successful deployment. This role requires both technical expertise and strong customer-facing skills.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Collaborating with insurance companies to understand their processes and requirements
  • Designing and deploying voice AI agents with custom conversation flows
  • Implementing integrations with third-party systems
  • Debugging edge cases using live transcripts and performance data
  • Contributing to product development based on customer insights

Required qualifications:

  • 2+ years of post-college work experience
  • Strong problem-solving abilities with cloud infrastructure and API integrations
  • Excellent communication skills for explaining technical concepts
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced startup environment

Nice to have:

  • Experience with prompt engineering or LLM platforms
  • Knowledge of TypeScript, React, and Node.js
  • Background in insurance, fintech, or regulated industries
  • Startup experience

We're backed by Y Combinator and top VCs, with support from operators at companies like Deel and PagerDuty. Join us in transforming a trillion-dollar industry that impacts every household and business. You'll be part of a small, energetic team building AI solutions that are already saving customers hundreds of hours.
