Job Description

Job Description:
We are looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer who can work directly with customers to understand their business problems, design practical solutions, and build working software that creates measurable impact. This role combines software engineering, solution architecture, consulting, product thinking, and customer-facing execution. The ideal candidate should be comfortable moving between customer conversations, messy business workflows, technical design, rapid prototyping, integration, deployment, and product feedback. This is not a pure back-office engineering role. The Forward Deployed Engineer will work close to the customer, understand the real-world context, and build solutions that solve actual operational, data, automation, and AI-led business problems. Required Skills and Experience 5-8 years of experience in software engineering, solution engineering, implementation engineering, product engineering, technical consulting, or customer-facing technology roles. Strong software engineering fundamentals and hands-on experience in at least one major programming language such as Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, C#, or Go. Good understanding of APIs, databases, cloud services, authentication, system integration, and application deployment. Ability to understand business workflows and convert them into clear technical designs. Experience building prototypes, MVPs, internal tools, dashboards, automations, or production grade applications. Comfortable working with structured and unstructured data. Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to navigate ambiguity and incomplete information. Ability to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Comfortable working in fast-moving customer environments where requirements evolve quickly. Strong ownership mindset and ability to take a problem from discovery to working solution.
