Fractional AI Engineer

The forward-deployed model: I join your standups and your repository, work in your stack and on your hours, and ship AI features with your team, without a full-time hire.

Questions

What does “forward-deployed” mean here?

That I work inside your team rather than from a distance: in your meetings, your tools and your codebase, responsible for the result and not just the ticket.

Which time zone do you work in?

Guatemala (UTC-6, no daylight saving time), which gives full overlap with US working hours.

Can this become a full-time role?

Yes, if it's a good fit for both sides.

Tell me what you want to automate.

A 20-minute call is enough to tell whether AI makes sense for your case and what it would take. In English or Spanish.

I reply within 24 hours.

Guatemala (UTC-6): full overlap with US working hours.
