About the role
We are looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer with 3-8 years of experience to own the technical customer relationship at a $50M Series A AI data platform for investors. You'll embed directly with private equity, private credit, and venture capital firms — building custom integrations on their data, demoing complex data infrastructure to C-level stakeholders, and driving real outcomes alongside our founders and engineers.
What will you be doing?
- Build and demo custom solutions on customer data — connecting structured and unstructured sources (PDFs, Excel, databases), running data reconciliation, and building compelling front-ends on top
- Own pre-sales technical work: build reusable demo environments, run private demos on prospect data, and support deal strategy
- Post-sales: work alongside engineers on lighter-weight implementations, data integrations, evals, and customer feedback loops
- Drive technical relationship management — sit with analysts at PE firms, understand their workflows, and translate patterns into product improvements
- Act as the voice of the customer, identifying what should be productized vs. one-off
About Rowspace
The best investors we know have built something over years and decades that's impossible to replicate: institutional memory of how they think and operate. It lives in memos, models, investment committee notes, emails, deal history, and trading data — scattered across systems that hold the patterns of what worked, what didn't, and why. That accumulated knowledge and how they apply it is their edge.
The problem is, it's trapped. It's messy and conflicting. It's locked behind stringent security and compliance controls. And most AI tools can't extract its meaning, much less scale it. That's the challenge we're taking on at Rowspace.
The firms we speak to know they need to drive AI transformation on an aggressive timeline. We've seen close up that AI is useless without the right data to act on. With public data increasingly commoditized, maintaining your edge demands a way to scale the judgment and insight latent in all the proprietary data your firm possesses.
Rowspace is launching to provide exactly this: specialized intelligence for investors to make faster, sharper decisions. We're thrilled to do it with $50M in backing from Sequoia, Emergence, Stripe, Conviction, Basis Set, Twine, and angels from across finance.
