About the role
As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you sit at the intersection of engineering, product, and customer delivery. Embedded directly with biopharma customers, you will learn their clinical and financial workflows firsthand to design and deploy high-impact, AI-powered solutions.
What they're looking for
- Has done this before. You’ve held a forward-deployed, founding-engineer, or similar zero-to-one customer-facing role, and turned messy real-world requirements into shipped software
- 4–10 years of software engineering experience with real depth — you’ve built and owned end-to-end production systems, not just features inside a large existing one
- Builds end-to-end systems quickly with AI. You use LLMs and agent frameworks (function calling / tool use, RAG, evals) to go from problem to working system fast, and you own their reliability, evaluation, and cost
- Translates customer needs into core products. A track record of taking a customer problem and implementing the solution directly in a shared core codebase
- Deep software engineering fundamentals. Strong proficiency in Python and Django, solid data modeling and SQL on PostgreSQL, comfort building on AWS (Bedrock, ECS/Fargate, Lambda). React for customer-facing UI is a plus
- Strong communicator. At ease with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, and credible in front of a customer
More about this role
Every year, hundreds of billions of dollars are invested to discover and develop new therapies, yet the financial infrastructure behind that work has not kept pace. Clinical operations and finance live in disconnected worlds, forcing teams to make high-stakes decisions using fragmented tools and static data.
Condor exists to change that. We are a system of action, building the financial intelligence layer that will power the next era of clinical development. Condor connects clinical operations, vendor activity, and financial signals into a single, real-time intelligence layer, giving R&D and finance leaders true command over how their organizations operate. Our platform is pharma-native, AI-driven infrastructure — built around an operation layer of guarded, audited business logic, a bitemporal source of truth, and AI agents that reason over real clinical and financial data. We are a high-growth Series A company backed by Insight Partners, Felicis, and 645 Ventures, growing rapidly with Top 200 biopharma companies.
