Staff Forward Deployed Engineer

Annapurna is hiring a Staff Frontend Engineer in a forward deployed role, working directly with customers to build AI-enabled workflows and frontend architecture. The company is an AI-native insurtech platform operating across 20+ countries.

• Work closely with customers to understand their workflows, scope messy problems and turn them into working software
• Build and ship customer-facing applications, integrations and AI-enabled workflows, end to end
• Lead frontend architecture and component design, setting the standard for how UI is built across squads
• Integrate AI capabilities into real customer workflows in reliable, secure and production-ready ways
• Use AI tools throughout your own development process to move faster without compromising quality
• Feed what you learn from customers back into the core product and engineering roadmap

• Staff-level frontend engineering experience, with deep TypeScript and a strong grasp of the web platform
• Experience building design systems or shared component libraries. Web Components or Lit is a real plus.
• Enough backend capability (Node.js, APIs, PostgreSQL, AWS) to be self-sufficient
• Experience in a customer-facing engineering role, such as forward deployed, solutions or customer engineering, consulting, or enterprise B2B product work
• Hands-on experience building AI or LLM features into production products, not just using AI coding tools
• Strong communication skills and confidence with non-technical stakeholders
• Insurance, fintech or other regulated B2B experience is a bonus, not a requirement
