Forward Deployed Engineer (AI / LLM) | Up to ¥25M | Tokyo Hybrid | Listed AI Company | No FDE Experience Required

I’m hiring Forward Deployed Engineers for a fast-growing, publicly listed AI company in Japan.
The role sits directly between software engineering, AI, and real business problems.

You’ll work closely with enterprise clients to:
  • Identify problems where AI can actually create value
  • Design and build AI / LLM solutions from 0 → 1
  • Develop prototypes quickly and bring them into production
  • Build with LLMs, RAG, AI Agents, Python, AWS / GCP and modern data platforms
  • Own projects from problem discovery through implementation and continuous improvement

Why I like this opportunity:
  • Compensation up to ¥25M
  • Hands-on work with LLMs and AI Agents
  • Work with major enterprises across multiple industries
  • High ownership over architecture and technology decisions
  • Hybrid
  • Flexible working hours
  • Full support for books, certifications and technical learning
  • ChatGPT, Claude and other AI tools actively used internally

And importantly:
You do NOT need previous FDE or AI project experience.
If you’re a Software Engineer who enjoys solving ambiguous problems, building 0 → 1 products, and working closer to real users and business problems, this could be a very interesting next step.
Only 2+ years of software development experience is required.

DM me if you’d like the full JD.
