Property is one of life's biggest financial decisions, yet the industry still relies on spreadsheets and missed calls. Cinnamon is changing that by building the AI agent layer for real estate. We are looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer to join our founding team in London.
Backed by Entrepreneurs First and the early investors of Canva, you will embed with customers, build vital integrations, and ship code that ensures our AI employees land successfully. If you have 2+ years of experience in Python and want to own the path from contract to launch, this is your seat at the table.
Role overview
As a Forward Deployed Engineer at Cinnamon, you will bridge the gap between signed contracts and live deployments. You’ll embed with customers to build custom integrations with CRMs and phone systems, shipping production code directly in the field. This high-impact role ensures Cinnamon’s AI employees land successfully within diverse agency ecosystems.
