Remote Deployed Services Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Compensation: $200,000-$250,000 per year
Location: United States - Remote or Omaha, NE - Hybrid

The job:

As a Forward Deployed AI Engineer at Buildertrend, you are the founding engineer on our Central AI Enablement team. You'll define how AI is architected, deployed, and scaled across Buildertrend. You'll build the foundational AI platform and shared capabilities that enable Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, Finance and People teams to operate more effectively. Unlike a traditional product engineering role, you'll focus on building Buildertrend's internal AI platform and capabilities, partnering directly with internal stakeholders and business leaders to solve high-impact operational challenges rather than shipping customer-facing product features. You'll have broad ownership of technical direction, establishing engineering standards and making foundational architectural decisions that shape how AI is built across Buildertrend.

What you will do:

• Own the technical architecture for Buildertrend's internal AI platform, designing reusable services, agentic systems, workflow orchestration, and AI capabilities that power teams across the GTM and G&A functions.

• Establish the engineering standards for internal AI development, including architecture patterns, reusable components, evaluation frameworks, observability, governance, and deployment practices.

• Architect the integration and data layer that connects Buildertrend's business tools, including Salesforce, Gong, Databricks, and others, into a scalable internal AI platform.

• Lead technical evaluations and build-vs-buy decisions for AI platforms, frameworks, and tooling in partnership with the Director of AI Enablement.

• Establish best practices for monitoring, evaluating, and continuously improving AI systems in production to ensure reliability, security, and business value.

• Translate ambiguous business problems from non-technical partners into well-scoped technical solutions and drive them to completion independently.

• Serve as the technical voice of the Central AI Enablement function in cross-functional conversations, including engineering leadership and business VPs.

• Embrace using AI as a tool to enhance your work, while remaining open to learning, applying critical thinking, and owning the quality of your final work.

Who you are and what you need:

• 5+ years of software engineering experience, including at least 2 years of experience designing and deploying production AI applications using modern LLM APIs and orchestration frameworks.

• Demonstrated experience owning technical architecture and influencing engineering direction across multiple teams.

• Experience with modern AI tooling such as OpenAI, Anthropic, LangGraph, MCP, vector databases, or similar technologies.

• Prior experience at a B2B SaaS company is highly preferred.

• Strong Python and/or JavaScript skills, with experience with API integrations, webhook design, and data pipeline architecture.

• Experience designing and delivering multi-step AI systems.

• Comfortable working across the GTM tech stack, including Salesforce, Gong, or similar, and ability to ramp quickly on new tools and become the technical owner for those systems and integrations.

• Understanding of how sales and marketing funnels work, what revenue teams care about, and how to size and measure the impact of what you build.

• Strong communicator who can present technical tradeoffs, architectural decisions, and build-vs-buy recommendations to VPs and senior leadership.

• You're energized by ambiguous problems where there isn't an established playbook!

We are giving you:

• Exceptional health packages, including medical, dental, and vision coverage, plus life insurance and short- and long-term disability benefits.

• A 401(k) plan with Buildertrend matching contributions to help you plan for the future.

• Generous paid time off, 11 paid holidays, plus personal days to make sure you have time to recharge.

• Parental leave and paid sabbaticals to support you during life's big moments.

• Volunteer time off - because giving back matters.

• Wellness program and onsite fitness center to keep you feeling your best.

• Opportunities for hybrid or remote work to give you the flexibility you need.

• Technology reimbursement to help cover costs for the tech you need to do your job from home.

• Free daily lunches when you're at our HQ office, plus monthly events to connect with your team.
