Forward Deployed Engineer II (Bulgaria)
Handshake, Sofia, Bulgaria
The role
Location: Sofia, Bulgaria. This role is based out of our Sofia office and is not eligible for full-time remote work.
We are growing our Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE) team in Sofia, which today consists of six engineers and works alongside a team of 20+ engineers in San Francisco.
Forward Deployed Engineering is a title we apply to software engineers who work much closer to the customer than a typical product engineer. At the root of the role is a strong software engineer — someone who understands technical systems, can hold the bigger picture, and can go deep into the weeds when a system breaks. What differs is the scope. You find the problem, decide whether it is even an engineering problem, scope the solution, and then either build it yourself or write the tickets and consult while a product team builds it.
