Forward Deployed Engineer

Join our team as a Forward Deployed Engineer, where you will own the delivery of customer projects from scoping to launch. You will act as a mini-PM, clarifying requirements, defining scope, and driving execution across stakeholders. You will build customer-specific solutions using Python and React, and develop creative solutions by combining our APIs with flexible workflows and lightweight tooling. You will also operate in an FDE-style capacity when needed, investigating customer environments/tools and resolving customer-impacting issues cross-functionally.
