Forward Deployed Engineer (Integrations)

What You'll Do

• Own technical integration delivery for priority customers — from first API call through production scale
• Write TypeScript/Node.js code to build, customize, and debug integrations with payments systems, cloud platforms, and third-party APIs
• Debug complex real-world issues live with customers — crawling edge cases, data pipeline failures, infra constraints
• Build reusable solutions and playbooks that turn one-off customer problems into repeatable wins for the team
• Translate customer friction into clear product and engineering insights and route them to the right people
• Work closely with core engineering on reliability, performance, and DX improvements driven by what you're seeing in the field

What We're Looking For

• A strong TypeScript/Node.js engineer. You write clean, production-quality code and you're fast. You've built integrations with external APIs and you understand what makes them brittle.
• Experienced with payments and cloud platforms. You've worked with Stripe or similar billing systems. You've integrated with GCP, Vercel, or comparable cloud providers.
• Solid on backend and data fundamentals. You can design a system, model a schema, and reason about data at scale. You know when to reach for a relational database and when not to.
• Security-aware. You understand the common auth patterns — OAuth, API keys, JWTs — and you know where the traps are when integrating third-party systems.
• High ownership with customers. You're comfortable in ambiguous, high-stakes situations with real customers. You communicate clearly, set expectations honestly, and follow through.

Backgrounds that often do well

• Integration or platform engineers
• Solutions engineers who write real code
• Early engineers at API-first startups who owned customer-facing technical work
