Forward Deployed Engineer

We're building the data stack for Physical AI. The Rerun SDK viewer is loved by some of the best robotics and spatial AI teams in the world, and Rerun Hub is live in private preview managing petabytes of data. Demand is strong, and we need someone whose focus is making customers successful, fast. As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you'll sit with customers from first demo through production, figure out what they actually need, and get something working in front of them. What drives you is unblocking customers and watching them go all-in on the product.

What you'll do

• Run demos and onboard customers onsite and remotely, building engineer-to-engineer trust alongside our founders

• Take a messy customer problem and stand up a working proof of concept

• Be the most expert user of Rerun, and feed relay customers struggles back into the roadmap

• Coordinate with the team to make every POC and customer onboarding better than the last

What we're looking for

• A technical foundation in either Robotics, ML, data engineering, or databases. You are credible with engineers, comfortable in real codebases.

• Working Python: you can read, iterate on, and extend existing code and get a POC over the line.

• Genuine interest in robotics, spatial AI, or computer vision; hands-on exposure is a real plus

• High agency, and genuinely driven by solving customer problems. Technical and real beats charismatic salesperson.

• Comfortable with 30% travel

How we work at Rerun

• This role is based in the Bay Area, hybrid, with 3 days a week in our SF office.

• We're a remote company headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, with a growing hub in San Francisco.

• We meet up in person for a week roughly once a quarter.

• We're spread across European and US time zones. Rather than one fixed window, each team keeps a few hours of daily overlap that fits where its members are, and every role posting says what that looks like.

• We've put together an uncommonly talented tech team, value agency and helpfulness highly, and expect everyone to take broad responsibility for what they build.

• We offer competitive cash and equity compensation, six weeks paid vacation, and whatever hardware and software you need to do your job.

• Parental leave: 12 weeks full pay for every parent, alongside your local statutory leave entitlements.
