## About the role

##### About the Role

This is a forward deployed engineering role at a Y Combinator-backed AI startup automating inside sales workflows for distributors and manufacturers. You will own the full technical lifecycle of customer deployments, from sales handoff to go-live, serving as the critical bridge between the product and its real-world impact in enterprise environments.

##### What You'll Do

- Own end-to-end technical implementation of the platform for each customer, from initial handoff through live deployment.

- Configure and fine-tune AI models for customer-specific use cases, including prompt engineering and model behavior adjustments.

- Structure customer data and build system integrations with ERP platforms such as SAP and various REST/GraphQL APIs.

- Develop prototypes to demonstrate new features or address emerging customer problems, then evolve them into scalable solutions.

- Engage daily with both technical teams and senior business stakeholders to translate operational pain points into engineering decisions.

- Surface product gaps and recurring patterns to the core engineering team, acting as the internal voice of the customer.

##### What We're Looking For

- C2 or native-level German fluency, required.

- Directly relevant Forward Deployed Engineering experience, not general engineering experience alone.

- Strong full-stack engineering ability across Python, React, TypeScript, SQL, and data pipelines.

- Experience integrating enterprise systems including ERP platforms, REST/GraphQL APIs, webhooks, or B2B SaaS implementations.

- Practical experience with LLMs, AI agents, and prompt engineering, with the ability to adapt model behavior to specific business domains.

- Proven ability to work with messy, inconsistent real-world data and establish reliable structures quickly.

- Customer-facing technical experience, comfortable communicating with both end users and senior stakeholders.

- High agency and ownership mindset, proactively identifying and solving problems without waiting for explicit direction.

- Comfort with ambiguity, legacy systems, and a fast-paced, high-intensity on-site environment.

##### Compensation & Benefits

Salary range: **80,000 to 130,000 EUR annually**. Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.

##### Location

On-site in **Munich, Bavaria, Germany**. This role requires full in-person presence.
