Sobre este puesto de Forward Deployed Engineer en Tagup
Forward Deployed Engineers work inside customer programs rather than at a distance from them. You’ll integrate our platform with government data and systems under real constraints, onboard messy real-world data, build the workflows a program runs on, and support deployments in customer environments, including on-site when a program needs it.
The work reaches users quickly. What you ship often gets into the hands of the people making readiness decisions within weeks, and what you learn in the field feeds back into the product.
Responsibilities
Integrate our platform with government data and systems under real constraints, and onboard the imperfect data programs actually run on
Configure the product against program requirements and support releases, including in government cloud environments
Build custom workflows that drive adoption, usage, and engagement with key customers
Triage and resolve customer-reported issues in their environments rather than passing them along
Own a component or program workstream end to end, returning working systems from a requirements document rather than closed tickets
Spend time on-site with customers, become their technical counterpart, and bring what you learn back to the product team
Write, test, and review code to a standard the rest of the team can build on
Desired Skills
2+ years of professional software engineering experience, or equivalent demonstrated ability
Proficiency in Python and/or TypeScript, with SQL and data-heavy work: ETL, integration, and wrangling imperfect real-world data
Clear communication with technical and non-technical stakeholders, and comfort working directly with customers
Bias toward ownership: handed a requirements document, you return a working system
Willingness to travel to customer sites (military installations across the U.S.)
U.S. citizenship and eligibility to obtain a U.S. government security clearance
Bonus Points
Military service or experience supporting defense programs. Veterans are strongly encouraged to apply
Familiarity with service supply, maintenance, and readiness data systems
Experience deploying software in government cloud or other constrained or air-gapped environments
An active security clearance
You don’t need to check every box. If the mission and the work resonate, we'd love to hear from you!
