About this role

Higharc is hiring for a Forward Deployed Engineer role (full-time). See the official posting for full details.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of engineering experience, including significant time in customer-facing or deployed settings — forward deployed engineering, solutions engineering, technical consulting, or professional services
  • Strong hands-on data fluency: SQL, scripting against APIs, comfort in notebooks, and a habit of interrogating a data set yourself rather than requesting a pull
  • Experience prototyping to validate ideas quickly using tools like Cursor, Replit, or V0.dev
  • A track record building structured data models, taxonomies, or classification schemes and getting a system to actually run on them in production
  • Strong judgment about data quality — what level of accuracy a decision requires, and what it costs to get there
  • Excellent written and verbal communication, including with executive stakeholders who have limited time and no patience for status without substance
  • Willingness to travel to client sites and company events up to 30% of the time
