Forward Deployed Engineer - MTS

About the Company

Context is the AI platform to redefine knowledge work. We:

• Build agents that continuously learn to capture companies’ proprietary intelligence, including procedures, data, and objectives

• Provide the work surface for them to perform complex, long-horizon tasks alongside humans in a native office suite

• Deploy them in secure environments to Fortune 500 companies

We are a fast-moving team of engineers and researchers from Apple, Ramp, Stripe, Meta, BAIR, and SAIL. We’ve built applications with 1M+ users, launched campaigns reaching 180M+ people, and forward deployed products in some of the world’s largest teams. We’re fortunate to be backed by Lux Capital, Qualcomm Ventures, General Catalyst, and Box Group.

Most companies must choose between iterating on product fast and working with the biggest enterprises on earth. We have the rare privilege of doing both. Features we ship this week are in the hands of teams at Fortune 100 companies next week, meaning every product bet we make gets immediate, high-stakes signal from some of the most consequential corporate teams in the world.
