Forward Deployed - Software Engineer (m/f/n)
Summary
Embeds with clients to rapidly prototype and build software solutions for ambiguous business problems using agentic development tools and AI coding assistants, coaching a junior teammate while delivering full-stack applications.
Currently, for one of our Partners, we are looking for an experienced Forward Deployed - Software Engineer (m/f/n) to support a new project delivered for a US-based enterprise environment.
The Opportunity
As a Forward Deployed Software Engineer, you embed with clients and turn ambiguous tax and business problems into working software, quickly. You scope against fuzzy requirements, prototype in front of stakeholders, and ship the applications, workflows, and interfaces that prove value inside a single engagement rather than over a multi-year roadmap. You use agentic development tooling to close the gap between an idea and a running system.
This is a hands-on role. FDE pods are two engineers, so you are the primary builder: you write most of the code yourself while coaching and growing the engineer alongside you. You are as comfortable in a working session with a tax partner as you are in the codebase. You listen first, translate between technical and business language, and own the outcome from first demo to handoff.
Responsibilities
Embed with client teams, pull requirements out of incomplete or shifting specs, and turn them into a working technical direction
Do the majority of the hands-on build: applications, workflows, and interfaces across the full stack, from front end to back end, APIs, and integrations
Use agentic development frameworks and AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) to prototype and ship at engagement speed
Stand up and integrate MCP servers and LLM-powered features that connect client data and tools to AI workflows
Demo early and often, take feedback directly from stakeholders, and iterate in tight loops
Coach the second engineer on your pod, teaching as you build and reviewing their work
Set the architecture and make practical build-vs-buy and technology calls for each problem
Promote reusable patterns back to the core platform where they generalize
Keep quality fit for purpose: solid enough to prove value, with polish where it counts
Plan for handoff or retirement of engagement-built software from the start
What You Must Have
Bachelor's Degree
At least 4 years of experience
English C1
What Sets You Apart
Master's Degree preferred
Using agentic development frameworks and AI coding assistants fluently to move faster
Building with LLMs and MCP server architectures to wire client data and tools into AI applications
Delivering against ambiguous, shifting requirements and reframing the problem when the first spec is wrong
Staying hands-on as a senior engineer while coaching a less experienced teammate
Working directly with non-technical stakeholders: demoing, aligning, and translating between technical and business concerns
Listening closely to learn a new domain quickly and build what the client actually needs
Using good judgment on architecture, build-vs-buy, and where to spend effort under time pressure
Understanding responsible AI practices and sound data handling in client environments
