Forward Deployed Engineer

Responsibilities:
Work directly with customers to understand requirements, workflows, and technical challenges.
Translate customer/business requirements into scalable technical solutions.
Own solutions end-to-end from discovery and solutioning through development, integration, and deployment.
Build production-grade software and reusable product capabilities. Work across the frontend and backend as required by the problem.
Collaborate closely with product and engineering teams to convert customer use cases into product improvements.
Develop integrations and custom solutions while ensuring they can be leveraged across multiple customers where applicable.
Troubleshoot technical challenges and independently drive problems to resolution.
Operate effectively in a fast-paced, early-stage startup environment and take ownership beyond a narrowly defined role.
Requirements:
2-4 years of relevant experience is preferred; candidates with more experience can be considered if they demonstrate strong hands-on engineering and FDE capabilities.
Strong software engineering fundamentals and hands-on coding experience.
Full-stack experience preferred; strong frontend or backend engineers who are willing to work across the stack can also be considered.
Experience with technologies such as React, TypeScript, Next.js, Go, Python, Rust, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, Kafka, RabbitMQ, gRPC, Docker, and cloud platforms is relevant.
Strong problem-solving and independent ownership.
Experience with customer-facing implementations, integrations, consulting, solutioning, or requirement gathering is highly relevant.
Ability to understand ambiguous customer problems and arrive at practical technical solutions.
Strong communication and stakeholder-management skills. AI/GenAI exposure is a plus but not mandatory.
Familiarity with AI-assisted development tools such as Cursor, Claude, GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, etc., is an added advantage.
