Full Job Description
THE OPPORTUNITY Hippocratic AI is on a mission to bring abundant, superhuman healthcare access to everyone — and we're building the safety-focused AI to make that real. As a Forward Deployment Engineer, you won't be watching that mission from the sidelines. You'll be the person who makes it land — embedded with customers, translating clinical complexity into AI systems that actually work in the wild. This is a rare hybrid role: part builder, part operator, part technical consultant. You'll be based in our HQ in Menlo Park, CA, but travel to customer sites, earn the trust of clinical and technical stakeholders, and ship production-grade AI into live healthcare workflows. If you thrive on ambiguity, move fast, and care deeply about the outcomes your work creates, this is the role you've been looking for. WHAT YOU'LL ACCOMPLISH - You'll turn clinical chaos into working AI. Healthcare workflows are messy, underdocumented, and high-stakes. You'll walk into that complexity, ask the right questions, and walk out with a solution architecture that actually scales — then build it. - You'll put conversational AI into the hands of patients and providers. From RAG pipelines to multi-agent systems to real-time voice, you'll deploy AI that people interact with directly in clinical settings — and you'll own whether it works. - You'll become the customer's most trusted technical partner. Embedded on-site, you're not just a vendor — you're the person clinical and engineering teams call when something needs to get done. That relationship is yours to build and yours to keep. - You'll shape how Hippocratic AI deploys at scale. Every engagement you run generates insight. You'll feed that back into product, AI research, and clinical teams, directly influencing how the platform evolves and how future deployments succeed faster. RESPONSIBILITIES - Scope and architect AI solutions for ambiguous, high-stakes clinical problems — from first conversation to production spec - Build and deploy RAG
