Founding Forward Deployed Engineer

ERP implementations take months, and most of the work is done by hand, the same way on every project. superglue’s AI agents take that work over. They move the client’s data, configure the new system and check the result, while consultants at implementation firms set the direction. As our first forward deployed engineer, you work inside our customers’ live projects, set superglue up for the work and make sure every project reaches go-live. What you learn on each project shapes what the agents do next, and you build the way superglue deploys. This is a fast track to leading deployment at superglue.

What matters most

We look for three things. Tell us where you have shown each of them in your work so far.

Ownership

You own the outcome of every project you join. You stay from kickoff until the client is live, and you stay responsible after that. Nobody has to follow up with you. When something blocks a project, you find the cause and fix it.

Judgment

You decide which parts of a project the agents take on and which stay with the consultants. You know when a quick workaround is enough and when the product should change. You check the work before the client sees it.

Communication

You write and speak clearly and directly. Consultants, their clients and our engineers know what was done, what is still open and what you need from them. You raise risks early and bring what you learn on projects back to the team.

What you will do

• Join customer projects from kickoff, decide where superglue’s agents take over the work, and set them up.
• Run data migrations and system configuration through superglue, and get each client to go-live.
• Train consultants at our customers to run projects on superglue on their own, so each firm moves more of its work to us.
• Turn every project into reusable mappings, checks and playbooks that make the next one faster.
• Work closely with our engineers. Tell them what the agents need next, and build fixes yourself when you can.
• Help our account executive scope new projects and show new firms what superglue can do.
• Build our deployment playbook: how we onboard firms, run projects and measure success.

How we work

• You work directly with the founders and our engineers, and you have a real say in what we build next.
• You own your projects end to end, from kickoff through go-live, and you stay with the client after that. No handoffs.
• As we grow, you hire and lead our deployment team.
• You work remotely from the US or from our office in Munich. You travel to customers when a project needs it.

What you bring

• Hands-on experience delivering ERP implementations as a technical or functional consultant, or a similar record of taking complex software projects live with customers.
• Deep knowledge of at least one major ERP system. If you come from another background, show us how fast you learn complex systems.
• Experience working directly with clients, including saying no to scope that does not fit.
• Real use of AI tools in your work, and opinions about where they help and where they fail.
• The drive to work in a startup: you move fast, take on whatever a project needs, and want to build and lead a team.

Experience at an ERP implementation partner is a strong plus, but it is not required.

Compensation

We pay a competitive salary, plus meaningful equity.
