Forward Deployed Engineer at Forge / Polemos

About Poetic Poetic (formerly known as Forge) is creating the next layer of human-computer interaction - combining the intelligence of AI with the reliability of software. We automate the most complex manual processes for the world's largest enterprises using a new English programming language that blends structured control flow with natural language instructions. Processes that once took hours can now be completed in a fraction of the time at superhuman quality. Poetic is deployed globally, powering critical workflows for Fortune 500 companies with 98%+ quality across over half a million production runs. About the Role As a Forward Deployed Engineer at Poetic, you re-program entire companies. You are not measured by technical complexity nor lines of code, but by ownership of business outcomes. Agency, judgment, and customer understanding are just as valuable in this role as strong software engineering ability. You will be driving a fundamental shift in how enterprises operate and how all of software is defined. You will own our most strategic customers (some of the largest companies in the world) to build and deploy automation and software that was previously impossible. These are not incremental improvements; you'll be replacing load-bearing workflows in production that previously consumed thousands of human hours. This role sits at the intersection of engineering, customer partnership, and operational excellence. You'll go deep into complex enterprise workflows, architect robust solutions using our AI-English programming language, and own deployments end-to-end — from initial discovery through global rollout. You'll build lasting relationships inside Fortune 500 organizations, understand the intricacies of their most critical processes, and deliver solutions that fundamentally change how they operate. You will be Poetic to our customers — the person who delivers previously impossible outcomes. This is a rare opportunity to re-build the largest industries in the world. And it requires someone who can do it all.
