Forward Deployed Engineer

On-site Berlin, Germany Full-time 2+ yrs

About the Role

Join an engineering team building AI software for enterprise procurement. This customer-facing role connects on-site discovery with hands-on product development, helping customers solve real workflow challenges while making shared platform capabilities more useful.

What You'll Do

  • Work on-site with procurement teams to understand their workflows and translate broad requests into clearly defined problems.

  • Review AI agent conversations and execution traces to identify failure patterns and improve prompts, context, and tool use.

  • Turn recurring agent failures into evaluation cases in collaboration with the AI team.

  • Build product features, customer-data adapters, and integrations that connect systems and data sources.

  • Take solutions from initial discovery through production rollout, then observe user behavior and iterate.

  • Bring recurring customer needs into reusable product and platform capabilities.

What We're Looking For

  • At least 2 years of professional experience shipping software used by real users.

  • Strong full-stack or backend foundations, with production experience building APIs and working with SQL and relational databases.

  • Production experience with TypeScript or Python; experience with React, Next.js, or another frontend framework is useful.

  • Experience in enterprise integrations, LLM applications, or technical customer-facing work.

  • Ability to investigate system behavior using logs, traces, or conversation histories, and improve software based on observed user behavior.

  • Experience building or maintaining integrations across systems or data sources is helpful. Procurement knowledge is not required.

Compensation & Benefits

Competitive salary and meaningful equity are offered. Visa sponsorship is not available.

Location

On-site in Berlin, Germany, with customer-site work and required travel.
