Scale AI is the data foundation for AI, helping organizations build and deploy reliable production AI applications. We partner with the world's leading enterprises and government organizations to accelerate their AI transformation through frontier AI systems that solve real business problems.
Every day, we work with organizations across finance, healthcare, manufacturing, media, telecommunications, and government to build production AI agents that automate complex workflows, reason over enterprise knowledge, and operate safely at scale.
The hardest part of enterprise AI isn't building a great model—it's building AI systems that reliably operate inside complex production environments.
As a Frontier Agent Engineer (Forward Deployed Engineering), you'll work directly with strategic enterprise customers to architect, integrate, deploy, and operate production AI systems. You'll combine modern software engineering, distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, and frontier AI technologies to transform cutting-edge models into reliable enterprise software.
Unlike traditional infrastructure or platform roles, you'll work at the intersection of AI and enterprise engineering. You'll design production agent architectures, integrate with customer systems, deploy AI into mission-critical workflows, and help shape the engineering best practices for the next generation of enterprise AI.
If you enjoy solving difficult systems problems, rapidly prototyping new AI capabilities, and bringing frontier AI into production, you'll fit right in.
You'll work across the full lifecycle of production AI systems:
You'll work with the latest frontier AI models, evaluation methodologies, agent frameworks, and developer tooling as they emerge, helping customers adopt new AI capabilities safely and effectively.
Rather than supporting a single product or platform, you'll solve diverse engineering challenges across industries and use cases, rapidly building expertise across enterprise architecture, AI systems engineering, and production deployment.
While this role initially emphasizes enterprise engineering and production deployment, every Frontier Agent Engineer develops expertise across both Forward Deployed Engineering and Applied AI.
Over time, you'll deepen your understanding of modern agent architectures, evaluation methodologies, retrieval systems, reasoning techniques, and emerging AI technologies, while continuing to build world-class production software. Our goal is to develop engineers who can design, build, evaluate, deploy, and continuously improve frontier AI systems end to end.
