Forward Deployed Engineer

August is hiring a Forward Deployed Engineer to work directly with partner law firms and build production-ready AI agents that handle legal work. Day to day, the role involves sitting alongside lawyers to understand how matters move through a firm, turning those workflows into agents, and deploying them on live cases. The company says the work requires expert-level reasoning and focuses on creating a highly accurate and secure system for legal operations. No specific tools, formal qualifications, or years of experience are listed in the advert. It also does not mention any language requirements. The role is based in New York City and is a full-time position. The advert suggests the job is in person, with a lean team working closely on site. It would suit someone who wants a zero-to-one role and is interested in helping shape core product from real client work.
