Job Description:

We’re hiring a Forward Deployed Full-Stack Engineer to work directly with our strategic customers. By embedding with their teams, you will design, build, and ship production-ready features, integrations, and workflows on top of deepset’s AI Platform. You’ll blend a product-engineering mindset with customer-facing technical depth: crafting intuitive UIs, reliable backend services, and integration patterns that accelerate AI adoption. If you love solving complex product challenges hands-on and want to see your work deliver immediate, real-world impact, this role is for you.

Job Responsibility:

  • Own technical outcomes from POC → production: frontend workflows, backend services, customer-specific integrations, and feature extensions
  • Build intuitive React/TypeScript UIs and robust backend logic in Python that enable enterprises to orchestrate large-scale LLM applications
  • Produce reference architectures, reusable UI components, and integration templates
  • upstream productizable improvements to Product & Engineering
  • Unblock enterprise environments by defining API requirements, designing data flows, aligning on authentication models (e.g., OIDC/SAML), and integrating with customer systems
  • Drive clarity from ambiguity: translate customer needs into well-scoped product solutions and deliver fast time-to-first-value
  • Define success metrics with customers: usability expectations, performance constraints, data consistency guarantees, and UX quality standards
  • Implement testing, monitoring, and lightweight observability for customer-facing workflows you build
  • Support planned releases, customer rollout coordination, and backward-compatibility validation to ensure smooth upgrades
  • Work closely with users, product managers, designers, and engineers to deeply understand customer workflows and shape intuitive end-to-end experiences
  • Train customer teams on the features you deliver—UI concepts, APIs, customization hooks, and troubleshooting paths
  • Prioritize “productization opportunities” with Product/Engineering based on real-world usage and field signal
  • Document clearly: setup guides, UX flows, API examples, best practices, and “golden path” usage patterns
  • Handle urgent customer-facing issues during high-priority deployments or escalations

Requirements:

  • 7+ years of professional experience in Full-Stack Engineering, Solutions Engineering, or Forward-Deployed/Customer-Facing Engineering roles
  • Strong proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript, React, and backend development in Python
  • Solid mastery of: REST APIs, data modeling, and SQL databases
  • Solid mastery of: CI/CD pipelines, testing strategies, and production-grade coding standards
  • Solid mastery of: Containerized environments (e.g., Docker
  • Kubernetes familiarity is a plus but not a core requirement)
  • Evidence of shipping customer-facing features and operating production systems
  • Experience integrating with enterprise systems (authentication, APIs, security/compliance requirements)
  • Excellent communicator who is comfortable working with customer executives and engineering teams under time pressure
  • Must be a resident of the European Union with an EU passport

Nice to have:

German language skills

What we offer:
  • Remote-first setup with flexible hours & tech of your choice
  • 30 days vacation + extra days for family sick leave
  • Competitive salary & stock options for every team member
  • Monthly sports & mental health support allowance with Oliva
  • Annual learning & development budget
  • Monthly team socials & in-person meetups
  • Dog-friendly Berlin HQ
