Role
Who you are
- 4+ years of professional experience shipping production software end to end, with hands-on experience building AI-enabled applications
- Demonstrated ability to translate ambiguous business needs into product requirements and deliver working software against them
- Full-stack engineering capability across data, services, and user interfaces
- Proficiency with agentic coding tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Augment
- Experience deploying and operating applications on a major cloud provider
- Working knowledge of application security practices for systems handling sensitive company data
- Strong product judgment, including the ability to define scope for an initial release, prioritize features, and determine completion criteria
- Excellent written communication skills across requirements, specifications, documentation, and stakeholder updates
- Proven ability to work directly with non-technical stakeholders and communicate technical concepts clearly
What the job involves
- We are hiring Forward Deployed AI Engineers to embed with business teams and lead the end-to-end delivery of internal applications, from discovery through production adoption
- You will partner directly with stakeholders to scope the work, design the solution, build it, and see it through to active use
- This is an AI-first engineering role
- The applications you build will be powered by modern AI, and you will use agentic coding tools as your primary development environment
- The role combines product management and full-stack engineering, and calls for someone who operates with high agency
- Working from broad strategic priorities set by Juniper Square leadership, you will conduct discovery with stakeholders, define product requirements, sequence delivery, and make the trade-offs between scope, speed, and quality that get working software into users' hands quickly
- Success is measured by adoption and impact
- You will own the products you build through launch and beyond, iterating based on real user feedback and contributing the patterns you develop back to the broader AI Guild
- Partner with business teams (Operations, Customer Success, Marketing, Finance, Legal, and others) to identify opportunities where AI can improve internal workflows and outcomes
- Conduct discovery with stakeholders and translate business needs into clear product requirements and acceptance criteria
- Carry each product through its full lifecycle, from prototyping and stakeholder validation through hardening, deployment, and rollout to production
- Use agentic coding tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Augment as the primary development environment
- Operate independently on standalone internal applications, and partner with central Engineering teams when work intersects with core systems or production platforms
- Make engineering tradeoffs appropriate to an internal user base, balancing speed of delivery with reliability, security, and maintainability
- Own deployed tools through adoption, including post-launch support, iteration based on user feedback, and ongoing maintenance
- Produce documentation, conduct user training, and manage rollouts to drive adoption
- Contribute reusable components, patterns, and learnings back to AI teams
Our take
Juniper Square is an investment management solutions platform that aims to empower LPs (Limited Partners) and GPs (General Partners) to expand opportunities through partnerships and make the world of private equity more transparent, efficient, and accessible. With a suite of tools that focus on CRM, fundraising, investor reporting, and an investor portal, the company has modernised and streamlined private equity management for companies such as Beacon Capital Partners, Bell Partners, and Greystar.
Founded in 2014, Juniper Square were immediately in direct competition with analytical monolith Microsoft Excel, as well as popular equity management apps like Fundwave. However, the platform has exceeded expectations, in part because of its fluid and longer-term focused software solutions that have innovated what was previously archaic and error-ridden under Excel.
Serving more than 2000 GPs, Juniper Square supports tens of thousands of investment partnerships, covering hundreds of billions in LP capital. The company has raised substantial funding, raising it to Unicorn level, which will be used to fuel rapid growth, accelerate innovation, and expand its services.
