Role

As a Forward-Deployed Software Engineer (FDSE) at Workhelix, you'll work directly with enterprise clients to solve high-impact data and engineering challenges. You'll embed with client teams to understand legacy systems, extract and transform complex datasets, and build scalable solutions that answer the three critical questions leaders have for us.

This role is technical first : you'll write production-grade code, build data pipelines, and integrate with messy real-world systems. You'll be critical to our mission of delivering actionable insights by ensuring our software works seamlessly in diverse enterprise environments.

We expect our engineers to bring deeper technical experience-this is not an entry-level or rotational role. You'll need at least 5 years of experience building software, ideally in environments where understanding the business context matters. You may be a good fit if you've been in any of the following roles : Sales Engineer, Technical Consultants, Customer facing Software Engineers, Developer Advocates or Technical Evangelist.
