Job description

About the Role A fast-growing enterprise AI solutions company headquartered in Berlin is looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer to join their team. You'll sit at the intersection of engineering, product, and customer success — designing and shipping production-grade Generative AI workflows that create direct, measurable impact for enterprise clients. This role involves working in ambiguous, high-stakes environments, often embedded with clients or operational teams to drive end-to-end delivery. What You'll Do Design and implement full-stack AI applications — from UI to API to orchestration logic. Rapidly build and deploy functional prototypes to test ideas and drive immediate client value. Work hands-on with internal and external stakeholders to shape requirements and debug problems in real time. Own the technical delivery of custom solutions, integrations, and workflow automation end-to-end. Collaborate closely with AI, product, and design teams to iterate on user-centric features. Contribute to a growing internal toolkit of reusable components, design patterns, and best practices for GenAI systems. What We're Looking For Required: Strong CS fundamentals. Experience designing and implementing Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines with vector databases. Proficiency building and deploying production-grade AI applications using OpenAI APIs and LangChain . Hands-on experience with a modern frontend stack: Next.js, React, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS . Experience deploying on cloud platforms ( Azure, AWS, or GCP ) and managing scalable AI workloads. Production-grade testing, monitoring, and reliability practices for AI systems. Strong client-facing communication and stakeholder management skills — able to translate messy requirements into clear deliverables. Ability to collaborate across engineering, product, and customer success to ship impactful AI solutions. Location & Work Arrangement This is a remote-first role, with the option to work from the company's Berlin, Germany office. Candidates based anywhere are welcome to apply. Visa sponsorship is not available for this position. About the Company This is a privately held, enterprise-focused AI solutions firm with a team of 20+ engineers. The company builds and deploys AI agents across industries including healthcare, manufacturing, private equity, and e-commerce — covering everything from customer-facing chatbots and voice agents to internal workflow automation and RAG-based knowledge management systems. They pride themselves on clean architecture, measurable outcomes, and rapid delivery cycles. Find more English Speaking Jobs in Germany on Arbeitnow
