About the role

• Forward Deployed Engineer implementing Treeswift's technology into customer operations. Meeting clients to understand their needs while managing data integrations and extensions.

Responsibilities

• Embed with our customers to deeply understand their challenges, how our technology can support them and where gaps exist. You will frequently meet the customer at their location to see their field and office workflows in-person.
• Deploy our product at our customers. This includes gathering necessary inputs to configure the platform, generating logins etc…. You may support and/or lead training for users on Treeswift’s tools and you will be the first point of contact for support and product feedback.
• Support integrations with customer data systems. We are often asked to push our data into existing customer systems. This starts by mapping our data into the target system schema. Our first integration may be a one-off data dump, but you will also support establishing more robust operational pipelines (i.e. API integration).
• Extend the platform where gaps exist to meet customer needs. This might range from writing python models for new business logic, contributing new features to our Web Application or larger product initiatives. Sometimes these contributions will be MVPs to move quickly and sometimes they will be fully fledged features reviewed by our core engineering team, that will then be deployed to all customers.
• Completing analyses to support our customers in understanding and trusting our data. This includes everything from one-off reports to comparisons between Treeswift data and customer data.
