About the Role
ECI is seeking a Senior AI Forward Deployed Engineer to help investment firms implement AI solutions. This client-facing role involves identifying opportunities, building and deploying AI solutions, and driving adoption across various business functions. The engineer will lead client engagements, mentor junior team members, and operate at a senior level with over five years of experience.
Responsibilities
- Independently lead AI client engagements from discovery and scoping through production deployment, adoption, documentation, and handover, serving as the accountable engineering lead for the client.
- Lead discovery with client leaders, operators, and technical teams to map workflows and identify where AI can save time, reduce risk, or improve quality across investment research, deal flow, trading, portfolio management, risk, valuations, fund operations, investor relations, and compliance.
- Own engagement scope and turn business needs into prioritized, buildable use cases with clear success measures based on value, data access, risk, and implementation effort.
- Architect, build, and deploy AI agents, integrations, and workflows using TypeScript or Python, ECI platforms, AI coding tools, Azure AI Foundry, Microsoft 365, and appropriate specialist products.
- Integrate solutions with client systems, APIs, documents, and data while addressing authentication, permissions, data isolation, audit trails, records retention, retries, and partial failures.
- Design evaluations using client examples, verify AI-assisted code and outputs, and apply automated checks and human review before solutions reach production.
- Partner with client compliance, security, and IT teams to establish data-handling requirements, approvals, information barriers, and production controls.
- Lead client enablement, train users, measure adoption and results against agreed success measures, iterate based on feedback, and document operating procedures and runbooks for handover.
- Mentor Associate FDEs and FDEs through technical reviews, client delivery, and professional development; convert recurring client needs into reusable patterns, connectors, and agent skills, and share field insights with ECI product and engineering teams.
Requirements
- Five or more years of professional software engineering experience, including experience supporting production systems.
- Hands-on experience building and shipping LLM-powered features, agents, or AI-enabled workflows to production users.
- Strong programming skills in TypeScript or Python, including development of APIs, integrations, and data workflows.
- Experience with retrieval, evaluation, and guardrails for LLM applications, including work across more than one model provider.
- Experience integrating third-party systems and APIs and handling authentication, permissions, data access, and failure conditions.
- Experience using AI coding agents with the judgment to review, correct, test, and verify generated output.
- Ability to understand business processes quickly, communicate technical choices clearly to non-technical stakeholders, and lead client engagements independently and communicate effectively with executive, business, compliance, security, and technical stakeholders.
- Ability to lead client engagements independently while coordinating effectively with distributed ECI product, engineering, industry, security, and account teams.
- Ability to work regularly at client sites in the New York area and travel occasionally for business.
- Ability to manage multiple client priorities and respond flexibly to deadlines, production issues, and changing engagement needs.
- Ability to work beyond normal business hours when necessary to support client delivery, releases, or critical business cycles.
- Ability to operate a computer keyboard, mouse, and other standard office technology for extended periods.
- Client onboarding may require background checks, security attestations, personal-trading pre-clearance, holdings reporting, or other controls required by the client.
