Forward-Deployed Engineer
About Pelles
Pelles transforms trade contractors' knowledge, documents, and workflows into AI-powered systems.

- Configure agents and integrations to fit each customer's actual process
- Build internal tooling that lets customer success scale
- Bring customer truths back to product and R&D — what works, what doesn't, what's missing
- Visit jobsites and customer offices regularly
Requirements
- Strong engineering background with senior-IC experience
- Ability to translate ambiguous customer needs into technical implementation
- Comfort in front of senior buyers and on active job sites
- A real interest in customers — not just a polite tolerance
