About the role

We are seeking a Forward Deployed Engineer to serve as the technical architect and execution lead for our most critical client implementations. You will be a founding member of a team dedicated to the "last mile" of the Syndio experience - ensuring that our customers' complex data environments are seamlessly integrated into our platform and clients can be onboarded into our platform with minimum effort.

In this role, you aren't just "onboarding" a client; you are building the data foundations that allow enterprise leaders to make fair, confident pay decisions. You will work at the intersection of Software Engineering and Solutions Architecture, using our new Implementation Platform and cutting-edge AI tools to transform disparate data into Decision Intelligence.

Why this role is exciting

• Hands-on Technical Execution : Own the end-to-end technical implementation for strategic clients, from initial data ingestion to complex group configurations in the Syndio platform.
• Innovate with AI : Use advanced AI prompt engineering to navigate product exceptions and architect creative solutions for unique client edge cases that "out of the box" features don't yet cover.
• Drive True Adoption : Ensure the platform isn't just "live"; it's embedded. You will design configurations that make Syndio an indispensable part of a client's daily HR and compensation workflow.
• Modern Tech Stack : Work with modern integration tools and help migrate existing clients to our new, high-scale Implementation Platform.
• Cross-Functional Impact : Act as the technical voice of the customer. You will provide direct feedback to the Core Engineering and Product teams to help shape the future of our Data ingestion and Pay Intelligence products.
