We are looking for a Forward Deployed AI Engineer to join the Team at DataSnipper. You will embed with our customers to build and refine the AI agents that automate their audit and finance workflows, taking them from zero to live in daily use and turning what you learn on the ground into the signal that shapes our product. You sit at the exact point where our agent platform meets real assurance work, directly reducing manual effort and accelerating audit outcomes. This is a hands-on, customer-facing role in a high-caliber team that moves fast and holds a high bar. You will design and build agents, debug their accuracy in front of a customer, make the feasibility calls, and then make sure engineering hears what you saw. The platform is still being shaped, so the role rewards people who are energized by building on something while making it better, not people who need fully stable
