Forward Deployed Engineer
Build working AI agents live in customer workshops, then take them to production: connectors, tests and rollout at the customer.
connic solutions builds and runs AI agent systems for companies that don't have the engineering capacity to do it themselves. As a Forward Deployed Engineer you make it real: you build the first working agent while the workshop is still running, and you stay until it runs in production.
What you'll do
- Build working MVPs on connic during customer workshops, together with an AI Solutions Consultant.
- Work with the customer's employees to connect their systems: email, ERP, file shares, APIs and private networks.
- Take agents from MVP to production with tools, tests, judges and approvals, and roll them out step by step.
- Run what you built: keep an eye on traces and costs, fix what breaks and improve the agents week by week.
- Bring what you learn at customers back to the connic product team.
What you bring
- Strong Python and several years building software that customers rely on.
- You use AI assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT every day and know agentic coding inside out: coding agents like Claude Code are part of how you work, and you know how to steer and review what they produce.
- Experience integrating business systems, APIs and data.
- You're as comfortable in a room with a CTO as with the people who will work with the agent.
- Willingness to travel to customers for workshops and rollouts.
- Fluent German and English.
Nice to have
- Experience in consulting, solutions engineering or another customer-facing engineering role.
