Sapien · New York, NY · 5 mo ago
On-siteEngineering$175k–$250k/yrFull-time

What you'll do

  • Build internal tools that accelerate our sales motion.
  • Create tools for generating customer demos, automated systems for onboarding new customers, and interfaces that help the sales team understand technical blockers.
  • Own customer module setup from technical sale through production.
  • Upload and validate customer data, configure workflows for their specific business processes, build custom integrations when needed, and ensure the platform works correctly for their use case.
  • Build and maintain integrations with customer systems.
  • Handle authentication, data syncing, schema mapping, and edge cases that come from integrating with messy real-world systems.
  • Be the DRI for customer performance.
  • Monitor accuracy and reliability for each customer, debug issues when they arise, optimize slow queries or workflows, and ensure customers are seeing measurable value from the platform.
  • Design product features that turn pilots into successful deployments.
  • You'll see firsthand what's blocking customer success and work with the product team to prioritize features that unlock expansion, prevent churn, and make the platform work for more use cases.
  • Identify patterns across customers that should become platform capabilities.
  • Turn one-off integrations into reusable connectors, custom scripts into product features, and manual setup work into automated onboarding flows.
  • Make customer operations scalable.
  • Create systems for data validation, integration testing, module templates, knowledge management, and monitoring so we can serve more customers.

What we're looking for

  • Full-stack engineering experience with React, TypeScript, Python, and SQL.
  • You can build tools quickly and translate customer problems into production solutions.
  • Customer-facing experience or strong interest in working directly with customers.
  • You're comfortable on calls, can explain technical concepts to non-technical people, and enjoy problem-solving with users.
  • Bias toward pragmatic solutions over perfect architecture. Shipping something that works beats over-engineering.
  • Ownership mentality for customer outcomes. You care whether customers succeed, not just whether your code works.
  • Ability to operate with ambiguity. Customer problems are messy and unique. You can assess what's needed, figure out the right solution, and execute without detailed specs.
