Forward Deployed Engineer (Intern)

• 21 B2B mid-market industrial manufacturers are already customers, 4 of them part of very large multinational industrial groups
• Fully bootstrapped and financed by revenue and cash flow

Who we are looking for

This role sits at the intersection of product management, software engineering, and customer work.

Le informazioni riportate di seguito illustrano i requisiti del ruolo, l'esperienza richiesta ai candidati e le qualifiche associate.

One goal: understand what the customer needs, prototype it fast, iterate with them directly, and only bring it to the engineering team once it's proven worth building properly.

Right now, one of our founders does this on every client call. It's the most valuable feedback loop we have and it doesn't scale.

You come in and own it. You listen to customers, you think from first principles about what they're actually asking for, you go build a rough version, and you put it in front of them quickly. You don't wait for a perfect spec. You don't wait for someone to tell you what to do. You figure out what's worth building and you prove it.

We're looking for someone technical, and AI-fluent who's equally comfortable in a customer conversation and in a code editor. Quick on their feet, at ease with ambiguity, and able to move from a client call to a working prototype the same day.

Our core values

We care for each other, we care for ourselves, we care for our families and dear ones, we care for our customers and we care about what we do.

We are serious but we do not take ourselves too seriously.

We are in business to do things that matter and we take this seriously, but we understand what real problems are in life so every once in a while we do not take ourselves too seriously.

We challenge ourselves, each other and the status quo. We aim at sparking genuine and respectful discussions that add value to the conversation to enrich one another.

We are all about distribution.

We will never do anything if we first don't understand whether someone is willing to pay for it and how we can get to these people.

We are balanced.

We work very hard, and we believe there's no work-life balance, there's only life.

We are here for the long-term.

We are just at the beginning of something very big and long-lasting.

Must haves

• Italian and English. Around 40% of our customers are Italian and the rest are spread across Northern Europe. You need to run in both languages without thinking about it.
• You can build and deploy a working prototype on your own. Stack is up to you. What matters is that you can ship something real, fast, without hand-holding.
• You think from first principles. When a customer tells you what they want, you ask why until you understand what they actually need.
• Comfortable in client-facing situations: you can run a call, ask the right questions, and read the room.

What makes you a great fit

You want a role that evolves into something more senior as we grow

You're curious about AI-native applications and have started building with them

You take full ownership of what you ship, including what doesn't work

Low ego: you're comfortable shipping rough things and iterating fast

You get energized by ambiguity, not slowed down by it

You think outside the box and bring ideas the team hasn't thought of yet

You may not make a good fit if

You need a clear spec before you can start

You'd rather build in isolation than in direct contact with customers

You want a traditional internship with well-defined tasks and regular check-ins

You think selling and building are two different jobs
