Summary The Forward Deployed Engineer owns the technical implementation of complex integration workflows - the builds that go beyond what a standard onboarding can handle and where Hatch doesn't yet have a native solution. This is a code-level, hands-on role. You're building n8n flows, direct API integrations, custom webhook configurations, and multi-system orchestrations. You get pulled in when complexity exceeds what the normal scope can cover - either at onboarding or later in the customer lifecycle when something harder surfaces. Managers should expect this person to be deep in the work, not coordinating around it. This opportunity requires you to be located in the United States. We’d love to have you apply, even if you don’t feel you meet every single requirement in this posting. At Hatch, we’re looking for great people, not just those who simply check off all the boxes. What you'll do - Partner directly with sales execution to scope complex integration projects. You will navigate the gap between a client's business objectives and what their technology ecosystem actually supports by diving deep into comprehensive developer documentation. - Build custom n8n flows, direct API integrations, webhook endpoints, and middleware configurations for accounts that fall outside standard templates. You must be comfortable adapting to a broad ecosystem of technology where no two implementations will be exactly the same. - Own technically complex onboardings end-to-end: CRMs with no Hatch connector, multi-system orchestrations, custom business logic, event-based triggers, and anything requiring code - QA and test all implementations before go-live; own monitoring and iteration post-launch. Monitor what you ship and know when something you built breaks or degrades before the customer does - Define and enforce best practices across enterprise SaaS implementations. Create reusable architecture patterns and templates for common use cases so the team isn't solving the same problem twice - Act as the field-side voice for R&D. Identify recurring custom integration requests and surface reproducible patterns to Product with a strong POV on what should be built natively - Act as a primary technical consultant for our clients. This includes conducting onsite visits to understand their business needs, present architectural solutions, and ensure successful deployment. What it takes to succeed - Several years of experience in a similar client-facing role including 1-4 years of software engineering experience, with a preference or a background in consulting. - Proven ability to navigate a broad ecosystem of technology - Comfortable diving into comprehensive developer documentation to build custom middleware (like n8n flows) - Eager to transition into a dynamic, client-facing role and solve complex, high-impact business problems directly with clients. - Great communication skills with business and technical audiences What you'll get - Full responsibility for projects from day one, a collaborative team, and a dynamic work environment. - This opportunity has the option to be fully remote in all locations across the US - Effective your first day: Full medical, vision, and dental - Mental health support and services via Modern Health - 15 days PTO (accrual begins on date of hire and increases with 2+ years of tenure thereafter), 12 paid holidays, plus one floating holiday - Up to 14 weeks of parental leave - Monthly wellness stipend - 401(k) retirement savings plan - Employee stock purchase plan - Professional development reimbursement - Work from home reimbursement Why Hatch - Shape the future of AI-driven customer service - Build alongside founders and leaders who value speed, ownership,and ambition - Solve challenging problems and see the impact on real businesses and customers - Join a team of builders who care about great engineering, fast execution, and each other Cl
