## About the role

As a Forward Deployed Engineering Lead , you will sit at the intersection of engineering, product, and customer delivery, while also raising the bar for how the FDE team operates.

- 5+ years of software engineering experience, ideally as an FDE or in backend / systems-focused work
- A track record of being the senior, steady hand on a team, comfortable operating with less oversight and setting the bar for others
- Strong proficiency in Python (TypeScript / JavaScript experience is a plus)
- Experience working with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
- Ability to translate ambiguous requirements into working, production-ready systems
- Strong communication skills and comfort working with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
