About the role

  • We're hiring a Forward Deployed Engineer - one of the highest-leverage roles on the team.
  • You'll sit at the intersection of engineering, product, and customers - working directly with scientists, ML teams, and pharma stakeholders to deploy Tamarind into real-world workflows.
  • Every deployment becomes a product signal, a reference customer, and a revenue driver.

Responsibilities

  • Own pilots end-to-end - from scoping to execution to expansion
  • Debug, adapt, and optimize workflows across compute, models, and data pipelines
  • Partner with product and engineering to turn customer feedback into roadmap inputs
  • Support technical discussions, demos, and deployments across the sales cycle
  • ML models (protein design, structure prediction, docking)

Requirements

  • Ability to operate in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
  • Experience working with AI/ML systems or data pipelines
  • Strong communication skills - able to interface with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Willingness to work onsite in San Francisco

Nice to have

  • Strong engineering fundamentals (Python preferred)

Skills

  • New AI models are quickly eclipsing physics-based tools in computational drug discovery.
  • Scientists often struggle to fine-tune, deploy, and scale these models, leaving breakthroughs on the table.
  • Tamarind provides a simple interface to the vast array of tools being released daily.

Company info

  • Work directly with customers (scientists, ML teams, pharma orgs) to understand workflows and translate needs into deployable solutions
