    Description

    TL;DR — We're building humanity's defense layer for the AI age and looking for our founding Forward Deployed Engineer to turn ground truths into product victories.

    If you want to invent new categories, not just improve existing ones—this is that role.

    Why Sweep?

    As intelligent machines proliferate into every part of the physical world, humans still lack a defense layer to ensure the systems and devices we rely on remain aligned with us.

    Sweep is building that layer today. Our tech is already deployed alongside some of the world's highest-stakes teams—from decision-makers and elite market-movers to frontline journalists, chart-topping artists, record-breaking athletes, and history-bending scientists. What we learn there becomes the foundation for a civilization-defining capability.

    We're a small, talent-dense team with a bias for high ownership, high velocity, and low ego. We care deeply, move fast, and are here to build something that outlives us.

    Together, we'll redefine cyber-physical security for the AI age.

    What makes this role special?

    • Be the first Forward Deployed Engineer at Sweep.
    • Create a new function at the intersection of engineering, product, customer success, and research.
    • Operate discreetly with Bletchley-Park intensity—where feedback is rapid, consequences are real, and the places you work from you might never discuss, but will never forget
    • Partner with elite teams challenging never-seen-before cyber risks.
    • Influence our core product direction and technical roadmap.

    What we're looking for...

    • 5+ years building and shipping production software.
    • Strong architectural thinking across frontend, backend, data, and infrastructure.
    • Ability to rapidly prototype, experiment, and learn from real usage.
    • Hands-on experience with BLE, Wi-Fi , RF, and device-level exploration in dense, noisy signal environments.
    • Clear communication—turning field observations into concrete product changes.
    • U.S. Person status required (may involve export-controlled data).

    Bonus if you've...

    • Worked with SDRs, packet capture, RF survey tools, or similar instrumentation.
    • Previously forward-deployed, customer-embedded, or mission-software experience in national-level sporting, entertainment, or government environments.
    • Worked with LLMs, agentic systems, or data-driven automation.
    • Hustled in a founding or early-stage startup environment.

    What you'll do...

    • Work directly with customers to understand workflows, constraints, and ground truths.
    • Deploy globally for short, high-intensity engagements (~50% global travel).
    • Own projects end-to-end—from field observation → product requirement → shipped improvement.
    • Partner closely with core engineers to translate real-world behavior into durable platform capabilities.
    • Capture patterns, edge cases, and failure modes so improvements scale beyond any single deployment.
    • Shape how Forward Deployed Engineering works (rituals, playbooks, org design).
    • Contribute to core product strategy, technical decisions, and cultural foundations.

    How we select...

    • Submit a short application
    • Complete a 20-minute intro call
    • Technical deep-dive and discussion of how you approach problems
    • Show us something you've built that makes you proud
    • References and offer

    Final facts.

    Base salary up to $210,000, depending on qualifications, experience, and impact.

    Total compensation includes equity, premium insurance, and individual benefits.

    You'll join us on-site at our NYC HQ or at our launchpad in Washington, DC with frequent global deployments.
    Apply. Make history. Build humanity's defense against machines.
