Engineering the Future of Work

Athena Intelligence is engineering the future of work. We're at the forefront of integrating artificial intelligence into enterprise operations, reshaping how humans and machines collaborate. Our flagship products include Olympus, an AI-native analytics platform, and Athena, an artificial employee designed to operate Olympus alongside enterprise teams.

The Role

As a Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) at Athena Intelligence, you'll be at the intersection of cutting-edge AI technology and real-world enterprise challenges. You'll work directly with our clients to solve their workflows with a mix of our existing products and new features you will build, following our core philosophy of engineering at the edge. You'll gain unique insights into important industries and institutions while contributing to our core products.

Engineering at the Edge

At Athena Intelligence, we believe in engineering at the edge, where Forward Deployed Engineers build the first version of any product in close collaboration with a single customer. This approach allows us to rapidly iterate and validate our solutions in real-world environments, providing crucial insights that shape our product development. As adoption grows, we integrate this into our core product and deploy it across our fleet, making the FDE role the cornerstone of our product strategy and the primary source of actionable intelligence for our product team.

The AI-First Workplace

In today's rapidly evolving business landscape, companies are increasingly adopting AI-first approaches before expanding headcount - similar to Shopify's recent strategic shift. This is precisely where Athena Intelligence comes in. As an FDE, you'll be at the forefront of this transformation, helping organizations integrate AI into their core operations and demonstrating how Athena can function as a valuable AI analyst employee alongside human teams.
