TrustLayer is at the forefront of revolutionizing risk management by automating and simplifying the certificate of insurance (COI) process. Our innovative platform enables businesses to ensure compliance, mitigate risk, and enhance operational efficiency. Backed by Craft Ventures.
About the role
As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you'll be the engineer our largest customers work with directly. You'll get their TrustLayer rollouts live: connecting the platform to their ERP, procurement and property management systems, migrating years of vendor and insurance data, and building the custom workflows their compliance programs need. You'll write production code, not slide decks. What you learn in the field comes back to the core team as reusable integrations, product feedback and fixes. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- 3+ years of professional software engineering experience, ideally at a B2B SaaS company
- Strong skills in at least one backend language, such as Python, TypeScript/Node.js or Ruby
- Hands-on experience building REST API integrations, webhooks and data pipelines
- Fluent SQL and experience working with relational databases and messy real-world data
- Comfort working directly with customers: you can explain technical trade-offs to non-engineers and stay calm in an escalation
- Ownership: you take a problem from "it's broken" to "it's fixed and documented" without being chased
