ABOUT THE ROLE

As a Software Engineer, Forward Deployed, you’ll solve the hardest problems standing between Ramp and the world’s largest and most complex companies — shaping and shipping the product capabilities that unlock our growth upmarket. You'll be part of our Core FDE org, which is an agent-first, high-pace, customer-facing engineering team. On FDE, you will interact directly with customers and deliver solutions end to end — understanding pain points, shaping product decisions, and building agents that autonomously expand Ramp's capabilities.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

- Deliver software end to end that meet the needs of our largest customers — understanding user pain points, scoping product specs, and building agents that autonomously implement solutions.

- Collaborate closely with Sales, Solutions, Customer Success, and Account Management to close deals, activate customers, and expand the value Ramp provides over time.

- Drive the core product engineering roadmap through our embedding model — specializing within a core product area to develop deep domain expertise and make prioritization calls on when to build a custom solution vs. accelerate a broader initiative.

WHAT YOU NEED

- 3+ years of software engineering experience preferred

- Extensive experience building with and for agents

- Track record of shipping high-quality products at scale

- Comfort and excitement to be customer-facing

- Desire to work in a fast-paced environment, continuously grow, and master your craft
