About this role
ABOUT THE ROLE
We’re looking for a top-tier Forward Deployed Engineer to join Linkup and work hand-in-hand with our founders, customers, and partners. This is our first hire at this role.
Your mission: help leading AI companies, developers, and enterprises integrate Linkup’s AI-ready search APIs into their products — and shape how the next generation of AI agents connects to the web.
This is a highly cross-functional role. You’ll operate at the intersection of engineering, GTM, and customer success, turning technical integrations into insights that drive our product roadmap, marketing narratives, and outbound strategy.
You’ll be the connective bridge between what customers build with Linkup and how we tell that story to the world.
