Forward Deployed Engineer

Forward Deployed Engineer at Eigi.ai
Every once in a while, the way software gets made changes completely.
This is one of those times.
Code used to be the hard part. It isn't anymore. AI writes code. It debugs code. It ships code. What it can't do, not yet, is sit across from a business owner, understand what's really keeping them up at night, and decide what's worth building.
That's the job. That's you.
What we believe.
Software is becoming a utility, like electricity. Nobody cares how the wires work. They care that the lights come on. The engineers who matter next won't be the ones who write the most code. They'll be the ones who understand the problem best and ship the answer fastest.
We think some of those engineers are in Nagpur. We're betting on it.
What you'll do.
Talk directly to business owners in the United States. Not through a manager. Not through a ticket. Directly.
Understand their business better than they expect you to. Find the real problem. It's rarely the one they describe first.
Work backwards from the problem to the solution. Then build it.
Build AI-first. AI agents, voice agents, LLM workflows, automations. And use AI in every step of your own work, from the first line to production.
Ship in days, not months. Put something real in their hands. Listen. Make it better.
Own the outcome. Not the task. The outcome.
Who you are.
You build things. You've shipped something real: a product, a side project, a freelance gig, a startup that didn't work out. We want to see it.
You know how to program, and you understand systems: APIs, databases, cloud, and how things break.
You already live inside AI tools. Claude, Cursor, whatever's next. You don't treat them as a shortcut. You treat them as leverage.
You can explain something complicated in plain English. On a call. To someone who doesn't care about your tech stack.
You're curious about how businesses actually work. You ask "why" one more time than everyone else.
You don't need a spec. You write it.
Who you're not.
Someone who waits for instructions. Someone who wants to hide inside one codebase forever. Someone who says "that's not my job." Here, it's all your job.
What you get.
Real problems, for real businesses, from day one.
The best AI tools available, and the freedom to push them to their limits.
A year here will teach you engineering, product, and client work all at once. Most careers take three jobs to get there.
A chance to be early. To be one of the people who proves that world-class software can be built from Nagpur.
How to apply.
Don't send us a resume and hope. Send us something you built. A repo, a live product, a demo video. Tell us in three lines what problem it solved and what you'd do differently today.
That's it. Show us.
