The job description from Auctor
Posted by Auctor on
Why Auctor
Auctor is building the AI layer for professional services and software implementation. Think of us as the brain behind the best solution engineers, forward-deployed engineers, and onboarding teams— automating the documentation, the discovery, and the decision-making that powers $400B+ in services work. We’re going after one of the biggest software categories of the decade.
The Opportunity
As a Forward Deployed Engineer at Auctor, you will own and lead engineering projects for our most strategic customers, building custom integrations and solutions tailored to their specific needs. You will work closely with our operations, GTM, and deployed services teams to build state-of-the-art systems that provide value to our customers.
We're looking for people who want to do the most meaningful work of their career. People who are sharp, fast, and relentless. No fluff. Just speed, execution, and a shot to build something generational.
What You'll Build
- Own end-to-end implementation of custom integrations for strategic customers
- Architect and build workflows and tooling tailored to enterprise needs
- Collaborate with customers directly, from technical teams to executives, to scope problems and ship solutions
- Develop performant agentic systems that operate over large corpora of unstructured data
- Work across the stack: backend services, frontend applications, and infrastructure
- Feed product insights back to the core team based on what you learn in the field
What You Bring
- Strong programming fundamentals and CS knowledge
- Proficiency in Python and TypeScript (Next.js experience preferred)
- Comfort with ambiguity and context-switching across multiple customer engagements
- Excellent communication skills; you can translate technical complexity for non-technical stakeholders
- Demonstrated grit, previous startup or high-intensity experience valued
About Auctor
AI-native system of action that connects discovery, requirements, decisions, and delivery for software implementation teams and system integrators.
