We Breathe Life Into Data
At Komodo Health, our mission is to reduce the global burden of disease. And we believe that smarter use of data is essential to this mission. That’s why we built the Healthcare Map — the industry’s largest, most complete, precise view of the U.S. healthcare system — by combining de-identified, real-world patient data with innovative algorithms and decades of clinical experience. The Healthcare Map serves as our foundation for a powerful suite of software applications, helping us answer healthcare’s most complex questions for our partners. Across the healthcare ecosystem, we’re helping our clients unlock critical insights to track detailed patient behaviors and treatment patterns, identify gaps in care, address unmet patient needs, and reduce the global burden of disease.
As we pursue these goals, it remains essential to us that we stay grounded in our values: be awesome, seek growth, deliver “wow,” and enjoy the ride. At Komodo, you will be joining a team of ambitious, supportive Dragons with diverse backgrounds but a shared passion to deliver on our mission to reduce the burden of disease — and enjoy the journey along the way.
The Opportunity at Komodo Health
Komodo’s Labs team builds Marmot — our AI-native product, powered by an MCP Gateway architecture that connects our data platform to the tools customers need. The Forward Deployed Engineering team is where Marmot meets the real world: we deploy AI-native solutions into complex enterprise healthcare environments, including customer cloud infrastructure, strict compliance requirements, and integrations that vary by engagement.
We sit at the intersection of Engineering, Product, and Revenue. We build, deploy, and own production outcomes for some of Komodo’s most complex and visible customer engagements
About the role
As a Senior Forward Deployed Engineer, AI Infrastructure & Deployments you will own end-to-end delivery for some of Komodo’s most technically demanding customer engagements — from solution architecture through deployment inside a customer’s cloud, data infrastructure, and compliance environment.
This is a deeply technical engineering role with direct customer context. You will write production code, design cloud-native deployment patterns, build integrations, develop MCP servers that extend the Komodo platform into a customer’s stack, and debug issues in environments you do not fully control.
The Forward Deployed Engineering team operates with a clear principle: own your work end to end. You will be expected to translate customer requirements into scalable, product-adjacent solutions, communicate clearly with technical and non-technical stakeholders, surface risks early, and make sound tradeoffs between speed and production rigor.
This role is best suited for someone who enjoys ambiguity, takes initiative, and is energized by solving complex problems in close partnership with customers. You’ll work on some of Komodo’s most complex and visible deployments — and see your work run in production.
In your first 90 days, you will have:
