We're seeking a Chief Forward Deployed Engineer who will function as a self-directed technical leader working closely with business stakeholders. Rather than relying on a Business Analyst or Scrum Master, you'll engage directly with clients to shape requirements and ship software ready for production use. Speed and end-to-end ownership define this role, which means weaving GitHub Copilot and other AI-driven tools into the fabric of your everyday coding practice.

Responsibilities

- Act as the go-to technical contact for clients from project kickoff through completion
- Convert broad business objectives into concrete technical strategies and step-by-step delivery plans
- Take full responsibility for guiding projects from the earliest idea stage all the way to production launch
- Exercise independent judgment when selecting architecture, tools, and implementation methods, operating with limited supervision
- Work in tandem with various teams across the organization to keep technical work and business objectives moving in sync
- Spot possible obstacles or risks ahead of time and craft workarounds to keep timelines intact
- Coach and develop fellow engineers to elevate the team's technical capability and output
- Regularly fine-tune internal processes and methods to speed up delivery while preserving high standards
- Communicate project status, key technical choices, and results to business stakeholders using accessible, jargon-free language
- Pivot readily in response to changing demands and client requirements without losing project momentum

Requirements

- Seven-plus years of practical,



applicable experience in the software engineering field
- At least 2 years spent directing and overseeing engineering teams
- Verified capability across the full stack, pairing .NET (C#) for backend work with Angular for frontend development
- Real-world experience rolling out and maintaining applications hosted on AWS
- Regular, hands-on daily engagement with GitHub Copilot or similar AI-assisted coding platforms integrated into standard development practices
- Demonstrated skill in engaging with business audiences, gathering requirements, and running agile delivery independently, without leaning on BA or Scrum Master roles
- Sharp abilities in debugging, auditing code, and securing applications, applied toward scrutinizing and polishing AI-produced code prior to release
- Capable communicator with English proficiency at C1 level or beyond, able to grasp business needs and convert them into agent-based architectural designs

Nice to have

- Exposure to Azure DevOps for overseeing project pipelines, monitoring tasks, and enabling continuous integration and deployment processes

We offer

- International projects with top brands
- Work with integral teams of highly skilled, diverse peers
