The Forward-Deployed Engineer (FDE) embeds directly with a PTA cohort — Point of Care, Risk, Data, or another team — to unblock AI adoption on the ground: shipping plugins and skills tailored to that team's workflows, integrating their tools through the MCP Gateway, and turning hard-won lessons into reusable patterns for the broader platform. This is the role for engineers who think like internal consultants: meet teams where they are, build what they need today, and feed durable wins back into the marketplace and installer that the rest of Aledade depends on. Primary Duties: - Embed with a PTA cohort and ship targeted enablement. Pair with engineers, PMs, and analysts on the assigned team; build plugins, skills, hooks, and connectors that solve their highest-friction workflows; measure adoption and impact. - Productize wins into the platform. Generalize cohort-specific work into reusable plugins, skill templates, and patterns published to the Claude Code Plugin Marketplace; document authorship guides; reduce the activation cost for the next cohort. - Integrate new tools through the MCP Gateway + AWS connector layer. Add and harden MCP server integrations (Glean, Slack, Jira, Snowflake, Salesforce, Databricks, etc.) to the gateway; partner with security and platform owners on auth/scopes/observability. - Feed back to the platform team and AI Unlock program. Contribute to roadmap and quarterly milestones; participate in office hours and brownbags as a practitioner; surface blockers (security, BAA, cost, throttling) early. - Support adoption health. Help close the long tail of repos with no .claude/ config; mentor cohort engineers on agentic-coding patterns; on-call rotation for marketplace-published artifacts. Minimum Qualifications: - BS/BTech (or higher) in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field. - 3+ years professional software engineering experience - Production experience with at least one modern application stack (Python, TypeScript/Node, Go, or similar) and modern CI/CD. - Demonstrated ability to ship end-to-end in unfamiliar codebases — e.g., consulting, forward-deployed, solutions, or platform-adjacent backgrounds. - Direct hands-on experience with one or more agentic coding tools in a production or near-production setting (Claude Code, Cursor, Cody, Copilot agents, Aider, or equivalent). - Strong written communication: comfortable producing documentation, runbooks, and educational artifacts for engineers who weren't in the room. Preferred KSA’s: - Experience authoring or maintaining MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers, Claude Code plugins, skills, hooks, or comparable LLM-tooling integrations. - Background in healthcare technology, HIPAA-regulated environments, or PHI-handling systems. - Prior FDE / customer-facing engineering / solutions architect / TPM-with-IC-chops experience. - Familiarity with Aledade's stack (Python/FastAPI, Vue/TypeScript, Postgres, AWS, Auth0, Datadog, Sumo Logic) is a plus but not required. - Experience integrating tools through API gateways, OAuth/M2M flows, or service meshes. - Comfort across the full stack (frontend/backend/infra) — FDE work doesn't honor team boundaries. Physical Requirements: Sitting for prolonged periods of time. Extensive use of computers and keyboard. Occasional walking and lifting may be required. ## About Aledade PBC ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Aledade is a physician-led public benefit corporation that builds and leads Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) to help independent primary care practices succeed in value-based care. - **Entity Type**: Private (Public Benefit Corporation; 11 funding rounds, $1.2B total funding) - **Headquarters**: Bethesda, Maryland, United States - **Founded**: 2014 - **Founders**: Farzad Mostashari (CEO) and Mat Kendall (President) ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Value-based care / healthcare services - **Target customers**: Independent primary care practices, health centers, and clinics (B2B) - **Mission or purpose**: To keep patients healthy, help independent practices thrive financially, and improve health outcomes in the communities they serve ## Products & Services - **Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs)**: A model where independent practices join together to share in the rewards of improved care quality and lower costs.
