About The Position

The Forward Deployed Engineer sits at the intersection of engineering and client success — embedded directly with customers to implement, customize, and scale the product in their environment. This isn’t a back-office engineering role: the FDE owns the outcome of deployment, from technical integration through adoption, and is often the primary technical voice the client interacts with post-sale.

Requirements

• 3+ years in a software engineering role with direct client- or field-facing exposure (solutions engineering, implementation engineering, or technical consulting)
• Full-stack or backend proficiency with hands-on production code experience — reading and writing code, not configuration-only work
• Demonstrated experience building custom integrations, scripts, or internal tooling to connect a core product with external client systems
• Track record of owning technical implementations end-to-end: scoping, building, shipping, and supporting
• Experience running technical discovery sessions or live debugging with client stakeholders
• C1+ English (CEFR) — primary technical contact for US-based client accounts

Nice To Haves

• Experience with API integrations, webhooks, and common auth patterns (OAuth, SSO)
• Background in a startup or agency environment with rapidly shifting client requirements
• Familiarity with data pipelines, ETL, or scripting (Python preferred)

Responsibilities

• Lead technical onboarding and implementation for new clients, configuring the product to fit their workflows, data, and systems
• Build custom integrations, scripts, or lightweight tools to bridge gaps between the core product and each client's existing stack
• Translate ambiguous client requirements into a scoped technical plan and execute it independently
• Serve as the primary technical point of contact for assigned accounts during and after rollout
• Run technical discovery calls and debug issues live with client stakeholders
• Communicate solutions in terms non-technical audiences can act on
• Identify recurring friction points across clients and feed them back to product and engineering as structured input
• Monitor deployed solutions for reliability and performance, fixing or flagging issues before the client notices
• Document deployment patterns and reusable components so future rollouts move faster
• Balance delivery speed against long-term durability of deployed solutions

Benefits

• Competitive Salary: Based on experience and skills
• Remote Work: Fully remote—work from anywhere
• Team Incentives: Recognition for maintaining 100% CRM hygiene and on-time reporting
• Generous PTO: In accordance with company policy
• Health Coverage for PH-based talents: HMO coverage after 3 months for full-time employees
• Direct Mentorship: Guidance from international industry experts
• Learning & Development: Ongoing access to resources for professional growth
• Global Networking: Connect with professionals worldwide
