Job Description:

Wonderschool is seeking to connect with potential Forward Deployed AI Engineers for future openings, focusing on candidates who are passionate about engineering and real-world impact in early childhood education. This role concept is inspired by best-in-class Forward Deployed Software Engineers at companies like Palantir and is designed for builders who love solving real problems in the field—not just from behind a desk.

Job Responsibility:

  • Working directly with customers and internal teams to uncover high-leverage problems
  • Designing, building, and deploying AI-powered tools and product experiences
  • Writing production code and shipping frequent improvements across the customer journey
  • Automating operational workflows such as onboarding, reporting, proposals, and internal tooling
  • Leveraging AI developer tools (e.g., Windsurf, Cursor, LLMs) to increase speed and quality
  • Owning full feedback loops: discovery, design, build, deploy, and iteration
  • Partnering closely with Sales, Onboarding, Account Management, and Product teams
  • Prioritizing work based on measurable business impact (revenue, efficiency, retention, experience)

Requirements:

  • Strong builder mindset
  • Experience launching products, tools, or businesses independently
  • Comfort working directly with users and translating insights into shipped solutions
  • Ability to write production code independently (e.g., Python, JavaScript, or similar languages)
  • Experience working with AI / LLMs and modern developer tooling
  • Business-minded approach to prioritization and problem-solving
  • Comfort operating in ambiguity with high ownership and minimal hand-holding
  • Interest in fast-paced, in-person, high-trust environments
