About the role
- You will embed with our enterprise customers as the engineer who makes Levelpath work in their world.
- You sit at the intersection of product, engineering, and the customer: on their calls, in their systems, translating what they need into what we ship.
Responsibilities
- Own the technical side of customer relationships: implementation, integration, workflow configuration, and go-live for enterprise procurement deployments.
- Build integrations between Levelpath and customer systems (ERP, HRIS, SSO, finance tools) with TypeScript, NestJS, and PostgreSQL, and guide customer teams building their own against our GraphQL API.
- Everything we learn about harnessing AI to build software goes into the product, driving faster, more accurate, and safer outcomes for enterprise procurement teams.
- We build with the aggressive assumption that everything in procurement can be done by AI.
- We're working to build a more inclusive economy where our customers have equal access to opportunity, and we strive to live by these same values in our workplace.
Requirements
- You are unflappable on a tense call, generous with teammates, and genuinely curious about the customer's problem rather than just the ticket in front of you.
- Comfort with ambiguity.
- When a customer wants a workflow configured, an integration stood up, or a hard question answered about how our agents will handle their data, you are the answer.
- Solid engineering fundamentals, at any level of experience. Maybe you have years shipping production software, maybe your background is in solutions or implementation engineering, or maybe you are relatively junior and make up for it by being indefatigable. We are open to all of it.
- AI-pilled, genuinely. Your instinct is to hand work to agents first, and you want to turn over as much as possible to AI, in your own workflow and in the product. You have the judgment to know when it worked.
- A deep-seated need to make your customers successful. This role is measured in customer outcomes, not tickets closed, and you treat anything standing between a customer and a win as something to bulldoze, not something to wait on.
- Ownership by default. No one here is just on a team. Everyone owns and leads something, and you should want that.
- TypeScript and Node.js experience (NestJS a plus), plus PostgreSQL knowledge and comfort with Docker. We care more about fundamentals than exact-stack trivia.
- An incredible attitude, internally and with customers. You are unflappable on a tense call, generous with teammates, and genuinely curious about the customer's problem rather than just the ticket in front of you.
- Exceptional communication. You can move between a customer's CFO, their integration engineer, and our platform team in one afternoon and leave all three feeling heard.
- Comfort with ambiguity. Customer environments are messy, requirements shift, and you treat that as the job rather than an obstacle to it.
Nice to have
- Prior forward deployed, solutions engineering, sales engineering, or professional services experience at an enterprise software company.
- Familiarity with procurement, finance, or ERP ecosystems (Ariba, Coupa, NetSuite, SAP, Workday).
- AI-paced culture
- Anchor US-hours on-call and turn every incident into better tooling, better runbooks, and a better product.
- Be the voice of the customer inside engineering, turning field reality into roadmap signal.
- Solid engineering fundamentals, at any level of experience.
- Maybe you have years shipping production software, maybe your background is in solutions or implementation engineering, or maybe you are relatively junior and make up for it by being indefatigable.
- AI-pilled, genuinely.
Compensation

Company info
- discovery, architecture, live debugging, executive readouts.
