About the role
- A customer-facing engineer who lives at the intersection of deployment, integration, and product.
- The job isn't demoing software; it's owning the outcome.
- Core product engineers then generalize it.
Responsibilities
- Build and deploy production solutions, not prototypes.
- Own the full integration lifecycle.
Requirements
- You know what it means to make something work with their data, their constraints, and their team watching.
- You don't need to be the deepest specialist in every layer, but you can't be blocked by any of them.
- Not "I've used Copilot." You know how to make AI leverage safe in a live-customer context.
- You can explain a technical constraint to a commercial director, write a concise integration spec for an engineer, and run a customer call without a script.
- But the industry is still massively under-instrumented, running on fragmented tools and the institutional knowledge of people who've been doing it for decades.
Nice to have
- Materials industry or adjacent vertical context.
- Chemicals, polymers, specialty materials, commodity trading, or distribution - familiarity with how these businesses buy, sell, and move product is a genuine accelerant.
- SAP / ERP depth.
- RFC/BAPI, ABAP, customer and order master data flows - or the confidence to reverse-engineer a customer's SAP configuration to that level under time pressure.
- Pre-sales or solutions engineering experience.
- You've sat in discovery calls and helped assess feasibility.
- You understand the gap between what a prospect wants and what's actually buildable in their environment.
- Fluency in compliance contexts.
Skills
- ABOUT VAILENT Vailent is the AI infrastructure for the materials industry - chemicals, polymers, elastomers, rubber.
- The companies in this space run on a mess of CRMs, ERPs, point tools, and flat files.
- Be the primary technical relationship.
- Serve as the customer's technical point of contact across the engagement - from onboarding through steady state.
- Run technical calls, explain architectural decisions to non-technical stakeholders, and surface risks before they become incidents.
- Support sales in technically complex deals.
- The close and the deployment aren't separate jobs.
- Direct AI agents through customer-specific work.
- Close the feedback loop with product and engineering.
- Capture and reuse what works.
- Treat every repeated setup task as a bug to be fixed once and inherited forever.
- Author the thinking, not just the code.
Company info
- Our customers run complex enterprise stacks: SAP/ERP systems, legacy CRMs, bespoke flat-file workflows built over decades.
- Embed with customers and own the outcome.
