About the role:

As a Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) at Parloa, you’ll be on the front lines of enterprise AI adoption - delivering cutting-edge technology into some of the most complex environments in the world. Your mission: lead end-to-end deployment projects from an engineering perspective - not just implementing what exists, but engineering what’s required to make it succeed at enterprise scale.

FDEs are our in-field product engineers. You will build what doesn’t yet exist, adapt architecture to enterprise realities, and engineer integrations across systems and APIs to make deployments successful. Your work is hands-on and code-first - you’ll be building, debugging, and engineering solutions directly in the field. What you ship not only makes deployments succeed, it also defines how customers experience Parloa and shapes what our product becomes.

This is not about maintenance. This is about engineering what makes it work in production, under real-world enterprise constraints, at speed and scale

Areas of ownership:

• Own deployment engineering projects: Lead the technical execution (incl. product engineering) of Parloa’s deployments inside large, complex enterprise environments
• Design for scale and resilience: Architect deployment solutions that meet enterprise-grade requirements for performance, reliability, and security
• Engineer solutions where none exist: Build custom extensions, integrations, and configurations to close product gaps and meet enterprise requirements
• Work across systems & stacks: Operate at the intersection of backend engineering, DevOps, and data engineering to ensure seamless delivery
• Partner with enterprise teams: Collaborate directly with customer engineering organizations to overcome constraints and deliver measurable outcomes
• Guide and mentor others: Collaborate with and provide technical guidance to more junior in-field engineers
