Forward Deployed Engineer | AI + integrations

Most “customer-facing technical” roles still fall into one of two buckets:

• Either you stay close to customers, but far from the real technical work.
• Or you stay technical, but too far from the actual business impact.

This one genuinely sits in the middle.

We're hiring for a Forward Deployed Engineer role with a fast-growing AI SaaS company in Munich, and it’s one of the more exciting opportunities I’ve worked on this year for someone who wants to combine technical problem-solving, customer ownership, and startup upside.

It’s a role for someone who wants to sit right at the point where AI becomes useful in the real world.

TL;DR

Environment: Seed-stage B2B SaaS / AI / workflow automation

The company

They’re still early enough that your work will matter immediately, but far enough along that there’s real traction behind the story.

The business is around 25 people today , growing quickly post-seed, and aiming to scale hard over the next 12–18 months ahead of a planned Series A . The expectation is that this function will become increasingly important as the company grows, which means this is one of those roles where joining now could put someone in a very strong position later on.

Join early enough to shape something important.

The role

You’d work directly with customers to understand how their teams operate, where friction still exists, and where manual work can be replaced with AI, integrations, and automations.

From there, you’d help design and deploy solutions that make the product genuinely stick inside customer accounts.

In practice, that means operating across things like:

• AI prompting and workflow design
• CRM / ERP-style integrations
• APIs, automation, and light scripting
• translating business requirements into technical solutions
• helping customers get to real adoption, not just initial excitement

Who this could suit

We'd love to speak with people who’ve done well in roles like:

• Solutions Engineer / Sales Engineer
• Forward Deployed / Solutions Architect / Implementation
• a technically strong startup operator who’s worked closely with customers
• an ex-founder or early employee who enjoys messy, high-ownership environments
• an engineer who has always gravitated towards customer problems rather than purely internal product work

Why this is genuinely exciting
