What we need

We’re looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer to join our Product team in Paris.

This is a customer‑facing Product role designed to help strategic customers turn complex operational challenges into high‑impact use cases on top of the YOOBIC platform.

You’ll work closely with customer teams to understand how their frontline operations work today, identify opportunities for improvement, and help design practical solutions using YOOBIC, integrations, automations, and AI‑enabled workflows.

This role is ideal for someone with a strong consulting, implementation, transformation, or customer delivery background who is comfortable with technical topics and enjoys translating business needs into concrete product and automation solutions.

You do not need to be a software engineer, but you should be comfortable discussing APIs, data flows, integrations, automation logic, and AI use cases with both business and technical stakeholders.

What you'll do

• Work directly with strategic customers to understand their workflows, pain points, operating model, data landscape, and business goals.
• Organise and lead customer workshops, including in‑person sessions with operations, IT, HR, learning, communications, or retail teams.
• Translate customer needs into clear use cases, success criteria, workflow designs, and implementation plans.
• Design end‑to‑end solutions leveraging the YOOBIC platform, including communications, task management, learning, forms, audits, reporting, integrations, and AI‑powered experiences.
• Identify where AI and automation can improve frontline execution, manager productivity, reporting, decision‑making, or operational consistency.
• Work with Product, Engineering, ML Engineering, Customer Success, Implementation, Pre‑Sales, Sales, and Support to validate and deliver customer use cases.
• Support the configuration, testing, and launch of customer workflows, working hands‑on where needed with automation tools, data, APIs, or prototypes.
• Help connect YOOBIC to customer systems such as HRIS, LMS, CRM, ticketing tools, BI tools, data warehouses, retail systems, and third‑party platforms.
• Test and iterate with real users, gather feedback, and help move use cases from concept to pilot or production.
• Feed customer learnings, product gaps, technical blockers, and repeatable patterns back into Product and Engineering.
• Create reusable assets such as workshop materials, use case templates, implementation guides, automation patterns, demo environments, and internal playbooks.

What you have

• 5+ years of experience in management consulting, digital transformation, implementation consulting, solutions consulting, customer delivery, technical product, customer success engineering, or a similar role.
• Experience working directly with enterprise or strategic customers on complex projects.
• Strong ability to understand business processes, map workflows, identify pain points, and define practical solutions.
• Solid technical fluency, including comfort with APIs, data flows, integrations, automation tools, SaaS platforms, and AI use cases.
• Ability to communicate clearly with both business and technical stakeholders.
• Strong workshop facilitation skills, including the ability to structure conversations, collect requirements, and align different stakeholders.
• Product mindset: you can frame a problem, define success criteria, prioritise trade‑offs, and identify what should become reusable.
• Strong interest in AI, LLMs, workflow automation, and practical enterprise use cases.
• Bias for action, ownership, and comfort with ambiguity.
• Right to work in France.
• Fluent in English; French is a strong plus.

Nice to have (bonus)

• Experience in B2B SaaS, enterprise software, or retail tech.
• Experience working with workflow automation tools such as n8n, Make, Zapier, Power Automate, or similar.
• Experience with LLM APIs, prompt engineering, agents, retrieval, structured outputs, or AI evaluation workflows.
• Experience with data analysis, reporting, dashboards, large datasets, or data validation.
• Experience working with enterprise customers, including security, access control, compliance, and production rollout constraints.
• Basic scripting or prototyping skills in Python, JavaScript, SQL, or similar are a plus, but not required.
