Job Zusammenfassung
In dieser Rolle gestaltest du die Implementierung und Integration der Blockbrain-Plattform bei Kunden, entwickelst maßgeschneiderte Lösungen und sorgst für den Erfolg ihrer technischen Systeme in dynamischen Umgebungen.
Job Technologien
Deine Rolle im Team
- Forward Deployed Engineers are Blockbrain's most client-proximate technical operators. Where Solutions Engineers sell and specify, FDEs ship - embedded directly in client environments to deploy, extend, and integrate the Blockbrain platform against real-world constraints. You own the gap between signed contract and working system.
- This is not a support role. FDEs write production-grade code, design integration architectures, and make technical decisions on-site with clients. You are accountable for time-to-value.
- Own end-to-end delivery of Blockbrain in client environments - from infrastructure standup through agent configuration, retrieval tuning, and integration wiring.
- Work directly with client engineering teams to ensure seamless adoption.
- Develop custom connectors, API adapters, and workflow extensions using Blockbrain's stack (TypeScript/Node.js, Python/FastAPI, Next.js).
- Tailor the platform to client data models, auth systems, and business processes.
- Configure and optimize Blockbrain's knowledge retrieval layer - vector indexes, reranker pipelines, graph integrations - for client-specific environments.
- Translate domain requirements into retrieval architecture decisions.
- Support and troubleshoot Kubernetes-based deployments (Docker, ArgoCD), cloud integrations, and IaC (Terraform).
- Take full ownership of clients running self-hosted Blockbrain instances.
- Act as a direct signal channel from the field to Product and Engineering.
- Document patterns, edge cases, and missing capabilities with enough specificity to become actionable backlog.
- Lead discovery sessions, integration workshops, and architecture reviews with client engineering stakeholders.
- Own the technical narrative in client meetings and teach advanced customer advocates to become platform experts.
- Use Claude Code and Blockbrain's own agents to accelerate deployments - scaffolding integrations, debugging client environments, and generating documentation instead of writing everything from scratch.
- Actively experiment with AI-assisted workflows for code generation, retrieval tuning, and test authoring to compress client time-to-value.
- Collaborate with the product team to provide real-world field feedback on Blockbrain's AI capabilities - you're the closest person to how customers actually use the platform.
- Stay curious about emerging AI capabilities and apply them hands-on in client engagements - if a new tool can cut a 2-day integration task to 2 hours, we expect you to find it.
Unsere Erwartungen an dich
Ausbildung
- Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field - or equivalent practical experience.
Qualifikationen
- Excellent presentation and relationship-building skills; confident leading client consultations, demos, and technical workshops in German (at least B2 level needed) and English.
- Jack of all trades with strong TypeScript proficiency across the stack; eager to pick up new technologies and infrastructure quickly. Familiarity with LLMs, data processing, and coding agents is ideal.
- Bias for action and pragmatic execution - you prototype rapidly, deliver value to clients quickly, and thrive in ambiguous, dynamic environments.
- Able to manage multiple concurrent client engagements, coordinate across Product and Engineering teams, and keep deployments on track without external project management.
- TypeScript/Node.js, Python, REST APIs, GraphQL, Kubernetes, Docker, ArgoCD, Terraform, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, vector databases, LLM/embedding pipelines, CI/CD tooling (Sentry, Grafana, Datadog).
- Entrepreneurial, resilient, and goal-oriented. An independent problem-solver who proposes tailored solutions, experiments with client feedback, learns from challenges, and communicates technical concepts clearly across all levels.
Erfahrung
- 5+ years in solutions engineering, full-stack development, or a client-facing technical role with proven ability to deliver projects from ideation to deployment.
Unser Angebot
- Full-time position on-site in Stuttgart or Hamburg (3 days per week) with flexible working hours.
- Deutschland-Ticket, Wellpass fitness membership, access to the latest AI tools, and regular company and team off-sites.
- International team with exceptional talents.
- Steep learning curve in a fast-growing AI startup. A high level of personal responsibility and the freedom to actively shape processes.
- MacBook, iPhone, headset, and all the tools you need to perform at your best.
