About the Role

Taktile empowers financial institutions to transform into truly AI‑native organizations. We’re growing rapidly with enterprise customers across banks and insurance companies, and we’re looking for a Senior Forward Deployed Engineer.

If you're passionate about tech and AI, stay up to date on the latest AI developments, and have extensive experience with Python, SQL, and REST APIs, you'll thrive here.

What You'll Do

• Lead complex AI‑driven Taktile deployments in production, owning technical delivery across multiple deployments, from scoping high‑impact Agentic AI use cases to stable production.
• Apply your technical expertise, problem‑solving skills, and creativity to help organizations address real‑world challenges—designing solution architectures, developing decision logic, deploying production‑grade Generative AI agents, and aligning with key customer stakeholders—all while ensuring an outstanding experience and rapid time to value for Taktile’s customers.
• Effectively scope work, sequence delivery, and proactively remove blockers, making thoughtful trade‑offs between scope, speed, and quality to ensure successful and timely project delivery.
• Partner with Taktile’s product management team to turn your understanding of customer needs into actionable product insights, directly influencing the evolution of Taktile’s product roadmap.
• Develop reusable resources, best practices, and tools to share your expertise and help scale the forward‑deployed engineering function across the organization.

About You

• Bring 2+ years of engineering or technical deployment experience that includes customer‑facing work.
• Have a strong technical background, preferably in Computer Science, Mathematics, Software Engineering, Physics, or Data Science.
• Write and review production‑grade Python and SQL, and have a strong command of REST API design and integrations.
• Excel at breaking down complex problems and making quick, well‑informed decisions under pressure.
• Build strong relationships with both technical and business stakeholders at all levels, driven by curiosity and a customer‑centric mindset that helps you understand their needs and solve their challenges.
• Be collaborative, curious, and low‑ego—work well across product, engineering, and GTM teams, and have a genuine desire to understand customers’ businesses.
• Be open to a hybrid work model and able to work from our Berlin or London office at least three days per week.

Ideal Qualifications

• Have 1+ years of experience as a Forward Deployed Engineer, Solution Engineer, Implementation Specialist, or an equivalent position within a B2B SaaS company.
• Have experience building AI applications within financial services.
• Have experience applying and optimizing statistical and machine learning models to solve business problems.
• Have experience with at least one of the major cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP).

What We Offer

• Work with colleagues that lift you up, challenge you, celebrate you, and help you grow. We come from many different backgrounds, but what we have in common is the desire to operate at the very top of our fields.
• Make an impact and meaningfully shape an early‑stage company.
• Enjoy a truly flat hierarchy and communicate directly with founding team members. Having an opinion and voicing your ideas is not only welcome but encouraged, especially when they challenge the status quo.
• Learn from experienced mentors and achieve tremendous personal and professional growth. Get to know and leverage our network of leading tech investors and advisors around the globe.
• Receive a top‑of‑market equity and cash compensation package.
• Get access to a self‑development budget you can use to attend conferences, buy books, or take classes.
• Use the equipment of your choice, including a meaningful home‑office set‑up.

Our Stance

We’re eager to meet talented and driven candidates regardless of whether they tick all the boxes. We’re looking for someone who will add to our culture, not just fit within it. We strongly encourage individuals from groups traditionally underestimated and underrepresented in tech to apply.

We seek to actively recognize and combat racism, sexism, ableism, and ageism. We embrace and support all gender identities and expressions, and celebrate love in its many forms. We won’t inquire about how you identify or if you’ve experienced discrimination, but if you want to tell your story, we are all ears.
