Fresh off our $25 million Series A round, Teleskope is entering a high-growth phase backed by top-tier investors and exceptional product-market fit. ## About the role We are seeking a Forward Deployed Engineer who will be the technical face of Teleskope to our customers. You'll operate across pre- and post-sales, sit between Go-to-Market and Engineering, support technical needs of customers in pilot, and serve as the dedicated technical resource for a large cohort of active subscription customers. The role requires hands-on engineering: writing bespoke integrations/automations, fixing customer-specific issues, and delivering production-ready technical solutions while building and maintaining strong relationships with our customers. ## What you'll do - Serve as the dedicated technical resource for a book of customer accounts, supporting core platform functionality as well as ancillary product needs to ensure an exceptional and consistent customer experience. - Work alongside Technical Account Managers to ensure success from conversion all the way through to renewal. - Collaborate with Product, Engineering, and Forward-Deployed SREs to ensure timely and accurate technical delivery. - Diagnose, triage, and implement fixes for customer-specific bugs; author reproducible fixes, tests, and PRs or produce clear remediation documentation when immediate code changes aren't appropriate. - Build custom product features to address high-impact customer requests. Most of these will make it to the core product. - Support technically complex use cases by developing scripts, automation, custom integrations, and reports. - Conduct architecture reviews, technical deep dives, enablement sessions, and solution reviews for a range of personas — from individual contributors to senior security and engineering leadership. - Help drive the product roadmap by bringing the voice of the customer into planning meetings, prioritizing issues, and championing high-value feature requests to the Product team. - Produce clear technical documentation, runbooks, and handoffs for customers and internal teams. ## About you - 2+ years supporting enterprise customers in a hands-on technical role (Customer Engineer, Software Engineer, Technical Consultant, Technical Account Manager)
