Caylent is an AI-first cloud services company that helps organizations turn ambitious ideas into meaningful business impact.Caylent's Anthropic Business Unit is a dedicated AI services practice built in partnership with Anthropic — Anthropic's first pure-play delivery partner. Engagements are production-grade: agents, data products, AI-augmented operations, workforce transformation.Forward Deployed Engineers live inside client organizations — in their standups, codebases, and architecture decisions. You own your assigned workstreams, deliver production-quality work from day one, and build the independent track record that creates a path to solo account ownership.We hire into two specializations: Technology-Workforce FDEs embed in engineering, product, and IT organizations building LLM-native production systems; Operational FDEs embed in business functions — Finance, HR, Legal, Supply Chain, and more — building workflow automations and running AI enablement programs for non-technical teams.Your AssignmentOwn assigned workstreams end-to-end within a larger engagement — your scope is yours to drive, not wait onBuild and ship in client codebases and environments — not in sandboxesContribute to discovery sessions, architecture reviews, and stakeholder interviews alongside senior FDEsTranslate ambiguous problems into scoped, deliverable work on your assigned scopeSurface risks and blockers early — escalate intentionally when decisions exceed your scope, not for tactical approvalTransfer capability that lasts: document and hand off working software or automations that stand on their own after you leaveContribute at least one reusable artifact or pattern back to the practice before each engagement closesYour Qualifications2–4 years of software engineering, technical delivery, or business systems experienceDemonstrated ability to self-direct on assigned scope — managing your own time, priorities, and delivery quality without daily oversightHands-on experience in one or more of: LLM application development, cloud-native development, backend engineering, or business automation toolingStrong communicator: technically clear with engineers, accessible and credible with business stakeholdersHigh tolerance for ambiguity; starts delivering before every requirement is definedPreferred QualificationsHands-on experience building with LLM APIs (Claude, AWS Bedrock, or equivalent) — prompt architecture, tool use, basic agent patternsFamiliarity with cloud-native development (AWS preferred), containerization, or backend systemsExperience with rapid prototyping: taking an ambiguous problem to a working proof-of-concept quicklyBackground in a consulting firm, systems integrator, or professional services environment a plusOperational PreferredDeep fluency in at least one business function: Finance, HR, Legal, Sales Ops, Supply Chain, or ManufacturingHands-on with Zapier, Power Automate, Airtable, or similar business automation toolsFamiliarity with enterprise systems: Salesforce, Oracle, D365, Workday, ServiceNow, or equivalentExperience supporting AI or digital adoption programs for non-technical audiencesWho Thrives hereYou operate without a playbook, earn trust fast, and build things that last. This role works best for people who are energized by figuring things out in motion — day-to-day direction comes from you, not a manager. If that sounds like the environment you're looking for, you'll be at home here.Why This TeamGround floor of something real: this BU is early, well-resourced, and anchored to Anthropic — you're writing the playbook, not inheriting one. The work is at the frontier: agents, AI product builds, enterprise adoption at scale.
