About the Job

We are looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer (f/m/d) to join our R&D team and work hands-on with our largest enterprise accounts.

• Build API connectors and integrations between the Certivity API and customer services and tools.
• Develop customer-specific tools, mostly backend, sometimes lightweight UIs, that solve concrete problems for customer IT, engineering and regulatory teams.
• Be the primary technical contact for our largest customers, answering technical questions from customer IT departments, engineers and regulatory experts directly.
• Contribute back to the core product, including our Customer Platform, Crawling (Python) and full-stack (Java/Spring Boot, React) teams when customer workload allows.
• Use AI coding tools as a core part of your daily delivery to move fast across an intentionally polyglot stack.
• Take end-to-end ownership of customer-facing technical projects and deliver high-quality solutions with measurable impact.
