## About the Role

* You're a technical problem-solver who thrives in customer-facing environments. You're equally comfortable whiteboarding architecture with a VP of Engineering and debugging API calls in a terminal.
\n

 * 3-7+ years in software engineering, solutions engineering, forward deployed engineering, or technical customer success at a SaaS or developer tools company.
\n

 * Strong programming skills in Python and/or TypeScript - you can read customer codebases, write integration scripts, and prototype solutions on the fly.
\n

 * Familiarity with the modern GenAI stack: LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure OpenAI, Bedrock), orchestration frameworks (LangChain, Semantic Kernel, AutoGen), and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP).
\n

 * Understanding of enterprise software economics - cost attribution, unit economics, usage-based pricing, and how finance teams think about technology ROI.
\n

 * Excellent written and verbal communication - you can translate deeply technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders and write clear documentation.
