Responsibilities

ABOUT THE ROLE:

We’re looking for a Lead Forward-Deployed Engineer (FDE) to join our team and be the bridge between our product and our customers. This is not your standard engineering role, you’ll be out in the field, working directly with clients, writing production code, and helping them reimagine how they run their business with our platform. You will be working directly with our Account Management team, implementation team and onboarding team. This role reports to the VP of Account Management.
As an FDE, you’ll wear a lot of hats: engineer, architect, problem-solver, and trusted advisor. One day you might be prototyping a custom integration; the next, you’re running a proof-of-value with a C-suite exec; the next, you’re feeding back product insights that shape the roadmap. If you like variety, ownership, and making real-world impact, you’ll love this role.

WHAT YOU’LL DO:

  • Embed with customer teams to understand their workflows and pain points in the Mortgage, SMB and Consumer lending space
  • Design and deliver technical solutions, APIs, microservices, data pipelines, and integrations that solve real business problems.
  • Write and ship production code across the stack (Python, Java, Go, TypeScript/React).
  • Run proof-of-concepts and proof-of-value engagements that demonstrate ROI fast.
  • Troubleshoot gnarly technical issues in live environments and get things back on track.
  • Partner with the Account Management and Product teams to deliver value, and influence the roadmap.
  • Travel occasionally (~30–50%) to customer sites and industry events
