Field Development Engineer

About The Role

Embed with industrial customers on-site, map their operations, configure the AI platform, and own their outcomes — for a YC W25 supply chain startup replacing 1980s infrastructure. SF, on-site.

Quick Facts

• YC W25 company — top 5% growth in batch
• Raised $10M+ from Paul Graham, SV Angel, Pear VC, and CRV
• Team of 20 co-living in Warsaw & SF Hacker Houses
• 7-figure ARR transacting ~$50M a week through our system

The role

Go. Fly out and plant yourself inside the customer's operation. Weekdays are onsite (Wisconsin, New York, Miami, Los Angeles); weekends we regroup at the SF HQ to debrief and keep building.

Understand. Map how the company actually operates — from sales and supply chain teams to executives and CEOs.

Learn the breakpoints choking their growth and speed.

Implement. Configure automations within SP Studio tooling so the platform accurately reflects the customer's needs.

Build trust and confidence in SalesPatriot.

Iterate. Take full ownership of the customer's outcome. Keep finding and killing their most pressing problems, leading org-wide scaling, until SalesPatriot is the operating system their business runs on.

What we're looking for

• Ready to relocate full-time to San Francisco — this is not a remote role
• Absolute grinder — interested in co-living (though not required)
• Comfortable with ambiguity and rapid change
• Track record of shipping fast
• Full-stack beyond code: comfortable jumping between frontend, backend, and organisational politics — earning trust with procurement specialists while navigating executive priorities and IT constraints
• Motivated by taking an unknown problem, sinking your teeth in, and coming up with a plan of attack
• Proficiency in TypeScript, JavaScript, and at least one frontend library (React, Svelte, Next.js, etc.)
• Ready to show at least one full-stack project you've shipped (GitHub repo, web app, or Loom demo)
• Knowledge of SQL databases, preferably Postgres
• Personable: clients trust you, like you, and look forward to your updates — you handle the conversation and the code
• Low ego, curious, and intellectually honest — focused on outcomes, not "being right"

The process

• Call with engineer
• 1hr technical test
• Call with founder
• Fly out to SF HQ (on us)
• Offer
