As the Forward Deployment Engineer you will sit at the intersection of client delivery, pre-sales, and internal AI tooling. You embed with a client (or an internal the company team), translate ambiguous problems into a defensible technical scope, and ship working AI systems to production - fast. Half of your time goes back into the company: every reusable pattern you spot in the field becomes a skill, agent, or MCP inside NetguruOS.

This is a builder role, not an advisory one. Proof of work is a running system - not a deck.


Salary:

from 22000PLN net on B2B contract + 20 paid days off
or from 18000PLN gross on Contract of Employment

What you'll do:

Client engagements

• Embed temporarily into the team that owns the problem - client engineering org or internal the company team

• Run discovery with stakeholders from CTO down to end-user

• Translate ambiguous pain into a written technical scope you can defend

• Lead pre-sales on AI opportunities - scope, price, propose, close

Build

• Prototype in days, not weeks - working software, not slides

• Write production-grade Python or TypeScript (or whatever the client runs)

• Ship AI-enabled workflows: copilots, agents, RAG systems, automation, internal tooling

• Integrate with the client's existing stack

• Stand up evals, observability, and guardrails before going live

• Own the path to production: security review, procurement, change management

Build internally (≈50% of the role)

• Extend the company internal AI platform with new agents, MCPs, and skills based on field learnings

• Build enablement tooling for internal AI delivery teams — templates, runbooks, reusable skills

• Codify reusable client patterns back into NetguruOS

Requirements

Experience

• 5+ years total, including 3+ years hands-on building and shipping AI-assisted systems

• 2+ years in a client-facing consulting or pre-sales engineering role

• Proven full-cycle ownership: discovery → scoping → build → production → handoff

• Comfortable with both technical and business stakeholders in the same engagement

• Communicative (B2+) Polish and English.

Technical

• Production-grade Python and/or TypeScript - shipped systems, not scripts

• LLM stack fluency (Claude, GPT, open-weight) - knows when to use which and why

• AI system design: agents, RAG pipelines, copilots, MCP servers, sub-agents

• Eval-driven development - defines success metrics before shipping, measures after

• Integration experience: REST APIs, iPaaS, common SaaS (CRM, PM, BI)

• Cloud deployment, security reviews, change management

Consulting & communication

• Translates ambiguous client pain into written technical scope - and defends it

• Credible with a CEO and an engineer on the same day

• Proposal writing and deal scoping for AI engagements

• Senior stakeholder management without hand-holding

Mindset

• Builder by default - running system over recommendation deck

• Stack-agnostic - picks the right tool, not the favorite one

• Walks into chaos, imposes structure, delivers clarity

• Ships in days, not weeks

Nice to have:

• Domain experience in Finance, Retail, or Supply Chain

• Public presence - conference talks, open-source, published writing on AI

SDLC orchestration and multi-agent pipelines

What success looks like (first 6–12 months)

• First AI engagement scoped, built, and delivered to production

• At least one reusable asset (agent skill, MCP, eval suite) shipped into NetguruOS

• Measurable time savings from internal tooling contributions
