Own the last mile of enterprise AI deployment for Unum, our Enterprise Superintelligence platform. You are a technical owner embedded close to the customer, responsible for turning messy enterprise reality into working software, repeatable patterns, and stronger platform capabilities.
What you'll do
- Own the technical outcome of Unum deployments end to end, working directly with customers inside real customer environments to make Unum usable, trusted, and valuable in production.
- Build integrations, templates, and deployment logic around actual customer systems, constraints, and users.
- Translate specific customer pain into reusable product patterns, identifying what should stay custom, what should become a template, and what should become part of the core Unum platform.
- Build high-impact applications, connectors, agentic workflows, and tools that help Unum deliver faster and more reliably across prototype, implementation, deployment, monitoring, and iteration.
- Work directly with users and stakeholders to earn trust, clarify success, and drive adoption.
- Design how AI agents surface findings, request feedback, trigger approvals, and escalate when they get stuck.
What you'll need
- 2+ years of professional experience in software, product engineering, applied AI, or forward deployed engineering.
- Strong engineering fundamentals to build full-stack applications.
- Proficiency in Python and experience with TypeScript, cloud infrastructure, integrations, and Terraform.
- Experience building with LLM APIs and turning model capabilities into useful workflows.
- Comfort working close to users, understanding real constraints, and turning ambiguous problems into working systems.
- Product judgement to understand why something matters and when to challenge requests.
- Comfort with messy environments, unclear requirements, legacy systems, and production constraints.
What they offer
- Career growth with support to accelerate in a fast-evolving environment.
- Opportunity to help scale and evolve Unum, the core platform powering ML6's next-generation AI capabilities.
- Attractive, optimized total package based on expertise and impact.
