About the Job

The Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) works directly with engineers inside our enterprise customers' organizations to help them succeed with the Vendasta platform, and to uncover what they need next.

You'll be the technical bridge between our customers and our product team - spending real time on-site, understanding how customers actually use the platform, and turning what you learn into input for the product roadmap.

Your Impact

As a Senior Forward Deployed Engineer, you will:

• Work embedded with a customer's engineering team to help them implement and get value from the Vendasta platform
• Identify gaps, friction points, and new opportunities through hands-on discovery
• Translate what you learn on-site into clear, actionable input for R&D's product roadmap and sprint planning
• Navigate difficult customer conversations with confidence
• Travel to customer sites regularly to maintain a real, working relationship
• Solve unfamiliar technical problems on the fly, using whatever stack and tools the customer already has in place

What You Bring to the Table

• 5-8 years experience in software engineering, solution architecture or forward deployed engineering
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science or a related technical field.
• Advanced full-stack development skills, and strong system design capabilities
• Strong, on-the-spot problem-solving ability reasoning through it live, without a playbook
• Confidence and professionalism in front of customers
• Clear written and spoken communication
  
• Prior on-site or embedded customer implementation experience
• A background in consulting, solutions architecture, or independent contracting, especially if it involved significant customer-facing discretion and autonomy
• Sales or pre-sales exposure
