About The Role

Join FourKites as a Forward Deployed Engineer, where you'll build and deploy AI-powered integration and workflow solutions directly with enterprise customers. You'll be at the intersection of software engineering and customer impact, working closely with Fortune 100 customers to solve complex, high-impact problems that move the world’s supply chains. - Participer à des appels de découverte client et de clarification technique, en répondant aux questions techniques complexes avec des solutions concrètes et innovantes. - Construire et déployer des solutions d'intégration et des flux de travail agentiques alimentés par l'IA directement avec les clients d'entreprise, de la première conversation technique à l'amélioration post-lancement. - Écrire et étendre les extensions de flux de travail basées sur LangGraph et les personnalisations d'action enveloppées dans Agent Studio. - Familiar with agentic frameworks such as LangGraph or LangChain and has built or configured at least one AI workflow in production or a meaningful side project - 0–4 years of software engineering experience — what matters more than tenure is the depth and quality of what you have built - Proficient in REST APIs, HTTP/HTTPS, SFTP, and core data formats — XML, EDI, JSON, flat files — can read, write, and transform all of them - Strong foundations in data structures and algorithms — able to reason about time and space complexity, choose the right data structures for the problem, and write code that performs at scale without being told how - Innovative problem solver — approaches integration and AI workflow challenges with genuine curiosity, finds non-obvious solutions, and doesn't default to the first approach that comes to mind - Able to deploy agentic workflows live with customers present, handling configuration and troubleshooting in the moment - Comfortable on customer calls — communicates technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders - Writes code at speed without sacrificing quality — can take a customer requirement from problem statement to working, deployed solution faster than traditional development cycles allow; this is a core expectation, not a nice-to-have - Solid working understanding of LLMs, prompt engineering, and agentic workflow design — hands-on, not theoretical - Uses Claude, OpenAI, or equivalent LLMs across the full workflow — requirements documentation, integration design, code generation, debugging, testing and deployment; not just as a coding assistant but as a core engineering tool - Strong proficiency in Java (required) — writes clean, optimized, production-grade code with proper error handling, test coverage, and clear design thinking from day one - Working knowledge of enterprise integration patterns and how to apply them in distributed, multi-tenant systems - Understands authentication patterns: OAuth 2.0, API keys, basic auth, token lifecycle management - Strong software design instincts — designs integration solutions that are modular, maintainable, and built to evolve; doesn't just write code that works today, writes code that holds up over time - Experience in supply chain, logistics, transportation, or B2B SaaS platforms is a strong plus - Familiarity with enterprise integration patterns and the ability to select the right approach for a given business and technical scenario - Familiarity with EDI standards, carrier integrations, TMS/WMS systems, and supply chain data flows - SQL proficiency — Snowflake experience is a plus - Experience with low-code/no-code workflow automation platforms such as Pipedream, n8n, Temporal, or equivalent - Proficient with Lucidchart, Miro, , or similar tools to document and communicate integration designs visually — the ability to make a complex data flow readable to a customer or a non-technical stakeholder matters as much as the build itself - Experience working with enterprise customers in a post-sales, implementation, or technical account role - Familiarity with webhook and callback delivery architecture - FourKites is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. If you're excited about this role but don't meet every requirement, we encourage you to apply
