Forward Deployed Engineer
About the Role
Join an engineering team building AI software for enterprise procurement. This customer-facing role combines on-site discovery with hands-on product development, helping procurement teams solve practical problems and turning successful solutions into reusable platform capabilities.
What You'll Do
Work on-site with procurement teams to understand their workflows and translate broad requests into clear problems.
Review agent conversations and execution traces to identify failure patterns, improve prompts and tool use, and create evaluation cases.
Build product features, customer-data adapters, and integrations that connect enterprise systems.
Take solutions from initial discovery through production rollout, observe real-world usage, and iterate based on what you learn.
Bring recurring customer needs into shared product and platform capabilities.
What We're Looking For
At least 2 years of professional experience delivering software used by real users.
Strong full-stack or backend foundations, including production APIs, SQL, and relational databases.
Production experience with TypeScript or Python.
Experience translating customer discovery into shipped software and investigating system behavior through logs, traces, or conversation histories.
Experience with enterprise integrations, LLM applications, or technical customer work.
React, Next.js, other frontend frameworks, and experience connecting multiple systems or data sources are helpful.
Clear communication with users, IT teams, and engineers, with a practical, systematic approach to debugging and follow-through.
Procurement experience is not required.
Compensation & Benefits
Competitive salary and meaningful equity are offered. Visa sponsorship is not available.
